Last week a delegation from the Western Australian Parliamentary
Friends of Technology and Innovation visited Inyarrimanha Ilgari
Bundara, CSIRO's Murchison Radio-astronomy Observatory. The group is
open to all members of Parliament, and has the objectives of
connecting private technology industry representatives with policy
makers; inspiring policy makers to 'think boldly' and embrace
innovation as a means to improve the technology sector and the
delivery of public services, and providing tech leaders, innovators
and entrepreneurs in WA with a platform to inform members on key and
emerging trends in their sectors. The group visited the Murchison
Widefield Array and ASKAP before stopping at the first station
of the SKA-Low array.
