No longer can we rely on the periodic discoveries and incremental changes achieved through disconnected innovation efforts.<\/p>\n<p>We need to harness the considerable talent and expertise across our innovation system, mobilise our resources at scale and align our efforts toward shared objectives. We also need to accelerate solutions that address the complexity of the problems, spanning science and technology, policy, sociotechnical, skills and cultures.<\/p>\n<p>These ideas drive mission-oriented innovation, and they led to the creation of CSIRO\u2019s Missions Program in 2020. CSIRO now proudly hosts a portfolio of eight launched missions and five missions in development, tackling issues of importance to Australian health, prosperity, and sustainability.<\/p>\n<p>CSIRO is not the only organisation using this approach \u2014 organisations and jurisdictions across Australia and the world have similarly identified the potential of mission-directed initiatives to drive novel approaches to collaboration at scale. We are delighted to host this event to learn from leaders and experts from industry, government, universities, and other critical sectors. Through this Summit, we hope to share insights and outcomes of collaborative and mission-oriented innovation and consider how we can maximise our collective impact.<\/p>\n<p>As part of the Summit program, we will hear from international innovation experts and learn from the experiences of other jurisdictions designing and delivering collaborative and mission-led initiatives, including our keynote presenter Christian Bason, Chief Executive of the Danish Design Council. We\u2019re also honoured to include Queensland\u2019s Chief Entrepreneur, Julia Spicer OAM, and a suite of distinguished speakers on the program to share insights on their important work.<\/p>\n<p>I can\u2019t wait to take part in the discussions and hear how we can accelerate collaboration and innovation to shape a prosperous future for Australia and communities around the world. On behalf of CSIRO, thank you for joining us, and we hope you enjoy this event.<\/p>\n<p>Kirsten Rose<br>Acting Chief Executive<br>CSIRO<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"nba-block nba-csiro__staff-card wp-block-nba-csiro-staff-card\" data-block-id=\"e8a0b9d3-011c6baa-cc2837d0\" data-block-type=\"nba-csiro__staff-card\"><div class=\"nba-layout\"><div class=\"card contact__card section--gray-lighter contact__card__img-circle\"><div class=\"card__container\"><div class=\"card__block\"><div class=\"card__image-wrapper\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"card__image card__image--cover is-nba-thumb\" style=\"background-repeat: no-repeat; background-position: center; background-size: cover;\" alt=\"Kirsten Rose\" srcset=\"https:\/\/wp.csiro.au\/summit23\/files\/2023\/08\/Kirsten2-e1691989027656-150x150.jpg 150w, https:\/\/wp.csiro.au\/summit23\/files\/2023\/08\/Kirsten2-e1691989027656-150x150.jpg 150w, https:\/\/wp.csiro.au\/summit23\/files\/2023\/08\/Kirsten2-e1691989027656-805x768.jpg 805w, https:\/\/wp.csiro.au\/summit23\/files\/2023\/08\/Kirsten2-e1691989027656-805x768.jpg 805w, \" sizes=\"(max-width: 150px) 150px, ((min-width: 150px) and (max-width: 150px)) 150px, ((min-width: 150px) and (max-width: 805px)) 805px, (min-width: 805px) 805px, \" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/wp.csiro.au\/summit23\/files\/2023\/08\/Kirsten2-e1691989027656-150x150.jpg\"><\/div><h2 class=\"card__title h3\"><span class=\"contact__card__name\">Kirsten Rose<\/span><\/h2><p class=\"card__teaser card__text\"><span class=\"contact__card__role-block\"><span class=\"contact__card__role\">CSIRO Acting Chief Executive<\/span><\/span><\/p><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>\n\n<h2>Keynote Speakers<\/h2>\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-table\"><table><tbody><tr><td>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-244\" src=\"https:\/\/wp.csiro.au\/summit23\/files\/2023\/08\/Ker_-300x300.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/wp.csiro.au\/summit23\/files\/2023\/08\/Ker_-300x300.jpg 300w, https:\/\/wp.csiro.au\/summit23\/files\/2023\/08\/Ker_-150x150.jpg 150w, https:\/\/wp.csiro.au\/summit23\/files\/2023\/08\/Ker_-768x768.jpg 768w, https:\/\/wp.csiro.au\/summit23\/files\/2023\/08\/Ker_-600x600.jpg 600w, https:\/\/wp.csiro.au\/summit23\/files\/2023\/08\/Ker_-250x250.jpg 250w, https:\/\/wp.csiro.au\/summit23\/files\/2023\/08\/Ker_-450x450.jpg 450w, https:\/\/wp.csiro.au\/summit23\/files\/2023\/08\/Ker_-750x750.jpg 750w, https:\/\/wp.csiro.au\/summit23\/files\/2023\/08\/Ker_-256x256.jpg 256w, https:\/\/wp.csiro.au\/summit23\/files\/2023\/08\/Ker_-384x384.jpg 384w, https:\/\/wp.csiro.au\/summit23\/files\/2023\/08\/Ker_-512x512.jpg 512w, https:\/\/wp.csiro.au\/summit23\/files\/2023\/08\/Ker_-100x100.jpg 100w, https:\/\/wp.csiro.au\/summit23\/files\/2023\/08\/Ker_-350x350.jpg 350w, https:\/\/wp.csiro.au\/summit23\/files\/2023\/08\/Ker_.jpg 998w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\"><\/p>\n<p><strong>Gail Ker OAM<br><\/strong>Office of the Logan Coordinator; Special Advisor, Settlement and Community Capacity Building, Social Policy Group<\/p>\n<\/td><td>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Over the past 30 years, Gail Ker OAM, DUniv has contributed her vast industry experience and unrivalled expertise in the Australian multicultural, humanitarian and community sectors.

At the end of 2002 he moved into the area of cereal quality and pursued a diverse range of interests including carotenoid biosynthesis in cereal grains, how manipulation of protein content and composition impacts end product functionality, the genetics of end product quality in wheat and modification of grain composition for health benefits.
