DIA — Community: Death and Rebirth of Australian Manufacturing

The DIA QLD Branch Council invites the design community Australia wide to an in-depth conversation about the future of Australian manufacturing.

Due to interest in this topic nationally, we have decided to take this event online.

Australian manufacturing is a shadow of its former self but the resilience of Australia as a nation relies on the rebirth of local manufacturing. Join us for a conversation about the sector as it stands, the unique Australian manufacturing ecosystem and what it's going to take to support the scaling needs of Australian design initiatives.
