Message from the Premier
The Smart State just gets smarter.
We’re changing Queensland into a place which uses innovative thinking and creativity to make it successful in a competitive global marketplace.
This issue of Catalyst shows how Queenslanders are using smart state thinking in a range of fields.
It’s the kind of thinking that makes prawns bigger and tastier, develops courses on animal physiotherapy and protects ships from terrorists.
It’s the kind of thinking that takes on world-class laboratory research into a form of cancer, that turns science into an art form, and sets up university studies on whale song.
It’s the kind of thinking that helps hearing-impaired babies to speak and Indigenous children to achieve to their full potential.
I know you’ll find Catalyst interesting and informative.
Peter Beattie MP
Premier and Minister for Trade
