INVITATION
You are invited to the inaugural SA SmartGrid Cluster forum featuring a program designed to enhance your understanding of the business opportunities that are likely to unfold as Australia moves to build an intelligent power grid over the coming decades. The forum will also provide plenty of opportunity for networking with other members of the cluster (108 members to date).
The forum will feature a panel that represents the different key players and perspectives that could influence the development of a smart grid in South Australia. It will also feature a special industry briefing paper designed to assist SA’s SmartGrid Cluster companies to understand the electricity supply industry sector, the drivers influencing the business strategy of this sector and the smart grid business opportunities that are likely to develop in the short to medium term.
This briefing paper was commissioned by the Dept of Trade & Economic Development (DTED).
As there is a vast range of business opportunities with this project, companies who are operating in the Electronics and ICT space are encouraged to attend.
