Tuesday 24^th November 2009

MGSM Speaker Breakfast Presentation with Professor Roy Green from UTS and Kate Hughes from the Macquarie Graduate School of Management (MGSM), discussing the research report findings which relate to the emerging northern Sydney technology corridor.

How do businesses around the world gain competitive advantage in their markets? Increasingly through co-locating and collaborating to create value. Are businesses doing this in the emerging northern Sydney technology corridor? Are they collaborating as well as co-locating to build innovation capability and performance? New research led by Professor Roy Green from UTS and Kate Hughes from the Macquarie Graduate School of Management (MGSM), Australian Business Foundation and Industry and Investment NSW, tries to answer these questions. It investigates firms in two key sectors – information and communication technologies and biomedical technologies – and their linkages with research and educational institutions. The findings from the research have important implications both for the firms themselves and for public policy in Australia.
