Message from the Premier
My Government wants future generations of Queenslanders to have every possible advantage to help deal with the challenges of an increasing complex world.
I believe that one of the greatest advantages anyone can have is a spirit of innovation – a willingness to step outside the box and look for different ways to approach issues.
That’s why a key plank of the Smart State vision is to foster innovation throughout Queensland – innovative people, innovative thinking, and innovative endeavours.
You’ll find plenty of innovation in this edition of Catalyst.
There are stories about a forensic bone specialist with the Queensland Police, analysis of UV exposures of the Queensland population, new electronic circuit technology that’s recyclable, microchips for monkeys, and an ethanol breakthrough.
I know you’ll find all these Smart State accomplishments exciting and informative.
Peter Beattie MP
Premier and Treasurer
