If there is a single precinct in Australia that embodies what's possible with digital innovation, it's the Tonsley Innovation District in Adelaide.
The vision for Tonsley has proven to be transformative and a powerful demonstration of economic renewal.
The magnitude and distinctive nature of the site itself creates a unique space to perform innovation and collaboration at a scale that has not seen before in Australia.
A powerful demonstration of success is that Tonsley now employs more people on site than when the Mitsubishi car assembly plant was operating on the same site.
A long-standing partnership with Flinders University - who bookends the site with TAFESA - spanning research and teaching.
The centrepiece of our partnership has been the Digital Health Research Chair - located at Tonsley in a dedicated Digital Health Design Lab - which is approaching its 10-year anniversary.
Establishment of Innovation Central Adelaide at Tonsley where companies and governments can experiment with technology to solve problems and convert opportunities.
Innovation Central Adelaide is linked to other innovation centres across Australia under the banner of the National Industry Innovation Network Investment in the Factory of the Future at Tonsley which is showcasing what's possible with digital innovation in advanced manufacturing but also providing an important vehicle to increase the supply of technology skills to South Australia.
Our skills focus extends into the Cisco Networking Academy which partners with both Flinders University and TAFESA on site at Tonsley.
Over the past 10 years I have watched Tonsley grow into a globally significant innovation district that is laying the foundation for the South Australian economy for years to come.
