Opening a world of manufacturing opportunities

Featuring industry experts in thought-provoking discussions the summit will shine a light on the world of opportunity open to manufacturers, discuss technology and innovation opportunities and share manufacturing success stories.

Join top investors, entrepreneurs and executives for a full day of insightful keynote sessions at Geelong Manufacturing Council’s Technology and Innovation Summit.

Manufacturers navigating their way to a clean energy future will also hear the rapidly evolving applications for hydrogen, developments in next generation batteries and the opportunities and challenges for biofuels and “behind the meter” solar.

Industry leaders will discuss the emerging process and enabling technologies that will drive change such as artificial intelligence, nanomaterials and 5G technology.

Research is driving much of our advanced manufacturing transformation – and the summit will explore the role of innovation ecosystems.

How can we get more new tech to market and bridge the “Valley of Death”?
