First Economic Development Dinner For 2009

The City of Monash, Economic Development Forum Committee held their first dinner for the year on Wednesday 1 April at the Monash Gallery of Art. Approximately 80 people attended the dinner.

The guest speaker at the dinner was Professor Paul Bonnington, Director of the e-Research Centre at Monash University.

Society and knowledge are being fundamentally changed by technology: E-Research is research that is facilitated and enhanced by the use of advanced computational, information and communication technologies.

Professor Bonnington outlined the Centre's role, which is to nurture e-Research developments to create an environment that will produce graduates and researchers who master technology and harness the massive volume of information and data generated through business, government and academia – translating this into education, research and workplace outcomes.

The next Economic Development Forum Dinner will be held on Wednesday, 19 August 2009.

 For further information on the Economic Development Forum, contact Jeff McAlpine, Manager Economic Development on 9518 3454.
