The Western Australian government is committed to raising the profile of innovation in Western Australia and supporting the delivery of government initiatives to advance the growth of the State’s innovation based industries.
The Innovator of the Year program has showcased innovative and entrepreneurial individuals, businesses and creative minds since 2006. The program has benefitted many of those who have participated as well as the broader community of Western Australia.
The WA Innovator of the Year program, run by the Department of Commerce, is a valuable initiative which provides support to innovators and entrepreneurs across our State.
The WA Innovator of the Year program aims to:
• promote and acknowledge the success of Western Australian innovators;
• encourage co-support from industry for promotional activities;
• activate and strengthen industry-government research collaborations; and
• engage communities throughout Western Australian regions in innovation.
