Science & Technology Australia welcomes creation of National Reconstruction Fund Featured
By Gordon Peters
The head of Science & Technology Australia, the peak body representing 115,000 Australian scientists and technologists, has welcomed the creation of the new National Reconstruction Fund, predicting that it would give Australia a powerful new vehicle to “spur and scale” the nation’s economic development and diversification.
STA CEO Misha Schubert said “the creation of the new National Reconstruction Fund will be a transformative investment in our country’s future economic security powered by home-grown science.
“It will help to deepen Australia’s scientific and technological innovation - which is key to strengthening our national prosperity, creating jobs and securing new income streams.
“This significantly boosts Australia’s pool of investment capital for next-generation materials development, value-adding and advanced manufacturing - the foundations of a strong, modern economy. This will help turbo-charge sovereign capability and economic complexity.”
The $15 billion National Reconstruction Fund legislation passed the Senate last night, and secured final passage through the House of Representatives at lunchtime today.
The bill establishes the National Reconstruction Fund Corporation to administer the fund. The NRF will invest in Australian next-generation materials development, value-adding and advanced manufacturing among its seven priority areas.
Its remit includes clean energy and green technologies, mining science technologies, medical manufacturing, critical technologies, advanced manufacturing and value-adding in agriculture and food.
On behalf of its 139 member organisations, Science & Technology Australia made a submission in February on the NRF’s design and implementation.

ENABLE HYBRID CLOUD & REDUCE NETWORK LATENCY WHITEPAPER
Hybrid cloud promises to bring together the best of both worlds enabling businesses to combine the scalability and cost-effectiveness of the cloud with the performance and control that you can get from your on-premise infrastructure.Reducing WAN latency is one of the biggest issues with hybrid cloud performance. Taking advantage of compression and data deduplication can reduce your network latency.
Research firm, Markets and Markets, predicted that the hybrid cloud market size is expected to grow from US$38.27 billion in 2017 to US$97.64 billion by 2023.
Colocation facilities provide many of the benefits of having your servers in the cloud while still maintaining physical control of your systems.
Cloud adjacency provided by colocation facilities can enable you to leverage their low latency high bandwidth connections to the cloud as well as providing a solid connection back to your on-premises corporate network.
Download this white paper to find out what you need to know about enabling the hybrid cloud in your organisation.
