CORE Innovation Hub powers Australia’s future industries by building ecosystems and innovation infrastructure for energy, mining, defence, and space.

We’ve created the nation’s first dedicated network connecting suppliers, researchers, entrepreneurs, and industry to fast-track solutions to the sector’s biggest challenges. From decarbonisation to automation, CORE is where collaboration turns into commercial outcomes.

Our hubs provide the launchpad for companies deploying advanced technologies to prove, scale, and thrive — strengthening Australia’s reputation as a global leader in resources technology and innovation.

Starting in Perth, CORE expanded nationally with our South Australian base at Lot Fourteen and regionally with our first hub in Newman, WA. Today, CORE is the beating heart of Australia’s resources innovation ecosystem — connecting people, ideas, and opportunities across the country.
