Businesses embracing innovation in manufacturing will be highlighted in a free seminar near Emerald that aims to strengthen regional capacity.
CQUniversity has partnered with Ausindustry, CSIRO, I4Connect and the Rockhampton Manufacturing Hub to host the seminar, which co-organiser and CQUniversity Manager of research partnerships Josh Ariens said would focus on how tapping into support that was available could deliver success on the innovation journey.
“There are a range of support mechanisms and significant funding streams available for businesses keen to tackle the challenges of innovation in advanced manufacturing processes and services,” Mr Ariens said.
“Both the Entrepreneur’s Program and the Accelerate Commercialisation Program are examples of how R & D (research and development) can help create and encourage an environment for innovation in your business.”

Bill Gates was 21 when he and Paul Allen registered Microsoft. Steve Jobs was 22 when he and Steve Wozniak launched Apple. Mark Zuckerberg started Facebook in his Harvard dormitory.
The biographies of these tech billionaires who achieved great success in their twenties has helped cement the perception that entrepreneurship is a young person’s game.
