Deep-tech ventures have the capability of driving global impact.
By providing unparalleled improvements in living standards, these entities achieve significant advancements in resident satisfaction, manifesting in increased lifespans, job creation, and enhanced overall prosperity. These projects typically yield substantial benefits across social, environmental, and economic spheres in Australia, fostering enduring financial growth and resilience.
Deep technology currently offers a groundbreaking opportunity for innovation and financial gain in Australia, but only if we’re willing to take bold action and harness the transformative power of systematic change.
What do Wi-Fi microprocessors, drone-mapping software, and 3D bioprinting share in common?
Four Australian startups – Morse Micro (founded in 2017), Propeller Aero (launched in 2014), Inventia Life Sciences (established in 2018), and Samsara Eco (introduced in 2023) – have pioneered deep tech innovations, showcasing their creations at Tech23 over the years.
Australia has witnessed numerous groundbreaking deep tech successes, ushering in a fresh era of innovation where cutting-edge platforms, scientific breakthroughs, and advanced infrastructure converge to revolutionize the way we live and work, as well as our connection with the environment.
