Welcome to Edition 11 of AusIndustry’s online bulletin, AusFocus.
From 15 December 2011, the Department of Industry, Innovation, Science, Research and Tertiary Education was established. AusIndustry is a specialist program delivery division within this Department.
In this edition we feature the first nationwide showcase of the power of innovation – INNOVATION in AUSTRALIA: People Making the Difference.
We also take a look at the winners of The Australian Innovation Challenge.
We see how Vardr are bringing the concept of neighbourhood watch into the social networking and smart phone age with a new low-cost video monitoring service for homes and small businesses.
There is a feature on the Australian Government’s newly launched iPad app which helps business deal with emergencies.
And, lastly, we celebrate 10 years of service with some our great Regional Managers!
