Current Consultations
Don’t miss the business opportunity of a lifetime!
A once in a lifetime opportunity for local businesses to mix with the
executive of Australia’s top companies is planned for Thursday 26 November,
from 2 – 4:30pm.
The City of Geraldton-Greenough and the Mid West Chamber of Commerce and
Industry are hosting the ASKAIC Industry Forum. National and International
businesses attending the forum in Geraldton include Boeing, SGI, IBM,
Horizon Power, Australian Government, WA Government, ICRAR, iVEC, CSIRO, NZ
Government, Cisco and HP.
The ASKAIC Industry Forum is an opportunity for Australasian Square
Kilometre Array Industry Consortium (ASKAIC) members and representatives of
Geraldton businesses to meet and discuss opportunities for partnerships with
building the ASKAP and possible SKA. The forum aims to strengthen
understanding of ASKAP and SKA within the Geraldton business community and
showcase local business capabilities to ASKAIC members.
This is the largest scientific project this century and businesses are
encouraged to attend the forum to gain an understanding of how they can
benefit and showcase their capabilities to top executives from the cream of
Australian and International businesses.
