Membership Value for Australian ICT Organisations
August 2013
ICT: A Vital Industry Sector• ICT contributes nearly 8% of Australia’s GDP;
generates in excess of $91b of revenue and drives a digital economy valued at some $100b (Australian ICT Statistical Compendium, ACS, 2012, p11)
• ICT job numbers are expected to double from 175,000 in 1999 to 350,000 in 2015 but over the last decade ICT enrolments in training and education have fallen nationally by 55 (Department of
Business and Innovation, Victoria, ICT snapshot – The State of ICT skills in Victoria, January 2012)
• The Australia tech start-up sector has the potential to contribute 4% of GDP, $109bn and 540,000 jobs to the economy by 2033 (AGIMO Australia’s
use and satisfaction with e-government services 2011)
