- Abstract
From the Executive Summary (page14):
"This report has three major conclusions:
* Building Australia's future industries will depend on adopting
technological innovation to develop high-value products and services for a global market.
* Improving collaboration in Australia, between businesses and between business and publicly funded reseach, will significantly enhance innovation. International collaboration is also critically important. Both domestic and international collaboration improves the productivity and
competitiveness of Australian technology-based firms.
* An innovative workforce that combines technical and non-technical disciplines, and enables good business management, is essential to underpin the competitive advantage of Australian industries and realise opportunities to lift productivity."
