NATIONAL ECONOMIC
DEVELOPMENT CONFERENCE
WRAP UP
The National Economic Development Conference
wrapped up in Adelaide last month, with over 200
people enjoying Study Tours, Masterclasses, two
stimulating conference days and an unforgettable
awards gala at the Adelaide Zoo.
The event kicked off with Study Tours, including a
unique opportunity to explore the $90 billion state
of the art shipbuilding facilities being constructed
at Osborne, South Australia. The tour also took
delegates through the western coastal region of
Adelaide, showcasing the digital integration of
projects in each of the four western Councils.
Another bus load of delegates was treated to a
Smart Cities Tour through Prospect and Unley.
The roving delegation then joined the Masterclass
by Robert Bell, which unveiled how to use powerful
and disruptive tools of the digital age to grow
economies, societies and cultures.
Delegates then gathered for networking, music,
fantastic food and stunning views at the rooftop
welcome reception.
