Then he moved to Sydney to establish Wang Labs and then Toshibas R&D centres and during this time in the early 1990's God revealed some of the nature of the spiritual battle and led him and Jane his wife on lonely path of revelation of strongholds and battle strategies of the God of this world. They published a book "Clearing the decks" on the strongholds over the Church and many other informal reports over this time.

He was led to become Director of the Australia Technology Park in Sydney and thus started his growth period of identifying and nurturing small technology business. Following this he was head hunted to go to Malaysia and establish a venture investment program for entrepreneurs. They were part of Calvary church in KL and worked on a model of prophetic strategy planning for Christian business.

More recently he was Director of the University of Ballarat Techno Park and God lead him to establish the "BoardRoom Prophets" group initially in Sydney.
