When the right conditions are in place, Western Australian entrepreneurs and businesses can do remarkable things to carry the entire nation forward.
As technological advancements continue to move at a lightning pace, Western Australia must have bold policies that ensure our State not only remains competitive but becomes a world leader in innovation and new industries.
Innovation plays a critical role in the growth of businesses and, consequently, the economy. It can range from incremental improvements to existing products or services, to scientific breakthroughs that transform lives.
Innovation in manufacturing offers enormous potential and the application of industrial technologies will increasingly become a necessity to remain competitive.
Having the right regulatory conditions and frameworks in place enables business to invest in innovation and build their productive capabilities.
What we are working for
- Ensuring Governments lay the foundations for the industries of tomorrow with a regulatory framework that encourages innovation and entrepreneurship, including establishing an attractive venture capital fund to commercial innovation.
- Advocating for State and Federal Governments to create an environment where advanced manufacturing is accelerated and our value-adding potential can thrive.
- Working to ensure that Western Australian businesses have access to emerging defence opportunities.
