Consultation is now open on the Australian government's Innovation and Science Australia’s 2030 Strategic Plan Issues Paper.
Innovation and Science Australia is developing a 2030 Strategic Plan to help guide its investment in the Australian innovation, science and research system.
The Strategic Plan will aim to contribute to the wellbeing and prosperity of all Australians by ensuring that Australia reaches its innovation potential.
