The Smart Business

Connected Businesses:
Super fast communications and intelligent networks in Tasmania will foster innovation for products and processes – driving productivity and increasing the competitiveness of Tasmanian business. Using this infrastructure to support new media, sustainable technologies and knowledge-based industries will stimulate the economy and create opportunities for all Tasmanians.

Instant global communications have opened up new opportunities for all Tasmanian businesses – whether they’re large traditional enterprises selling tangible goods, or single-operators selling packets of electrons.

Over the past decade, 85% of all productivity gains in Australia's manufacturing sector and 78% of gains in the services sector have come from information and computer technology (ICT) solutions. ICT solutions enable Tasmanian businesses to:
  • cut costs and improve services
  • reach global markets
  • communicate better with staff and customers
  • learn more about competitors and emerging markets
  • source raw materials and components
  • integrate and coordinate with alliance partners.
Deep knowledge of markets, a close reading of competitors and a thorough commitment to quality and service are the other critical elements to bring sustained prosperity.

Embedded, connected intelligence – in people, networks or machines – is another fundamental factor that determines whether organisations can learn enough to properly grow into the future.
