WSAA has been accepted to participate in The Innovation Papers project. The project is bringing leaders from across the different aspects of the economy to take advantage of renewed federal interest in industrial and innovation policy to sustain and drive economic growth.

The Innovation Papers are being launched on the 4th of August 2022, with WSAA one of only a handful of industry led policy positions being presented. This provides an excellent opportunity for the industry to be seen within the innovation space, as we aim to challenge the perception of our industry as being conservative and risk averse.

The paper for which we have been accepted proposes a methodology WSAA is developing around the structure and facilitation of an innovation ecosystem and the opportunities this creates for cross-industry collaboration. We propose targeted interventions by the federal government to support the approach and unlock industry investment to drive innovation outcomes.
