February 21–23, 2010

Bowral

The face of Industrial R&D is changing dramatically in
Australasia
, as elsewhere. The last two years has seen enormous changes including:
- closure or retrenchment at a number of important corporate R&D installations;
- major innovation reviews held in both
Australia
and
New Zealand
; roller coaster rides for new ventures with the axing of commercial ready in
Australia
; and,
- recessionary pressures changing governmental, corporate and consumer spending patterns.
Yet, in spite of all these changes,
Australia
and
New Zealand
’s most innovative companies have continued to launch new products, spin out new companies and roll out new processes. Australasian R&D managers have been immersed in this maelstrom. Therefore, the 2010 AIRG National Meeting will consider what R&D managers can do to shape these changes as we ask the question “How can R&D Managers Influence and Improve the future of Australasian Research and Innovation?”
