Overview
• What are innovation ecosystems?• What is innovation?• What is NICTA?• NICTA as an example of building an
innovation ecosystem

Innovation Ecosystems
• Economies and complex networks of technologies all form ecosystems
• It’s helpful to understand them from this viewpoint
• Then we can get a better grasp on how to encourage innovation

Ecosystems are complex systems
• Characteristics:– Network structure– Self-organisation– Swarm behaviours– Temporal shear– Co-evolution– Emergent behaviour

What is innovation?
• All innovations are ‘evolutionary moves’, which means they are:– Incremental from existing capabilities– Governed by time shear– Dependent on underlying network structure to
shape possibilities– A consequence of the ‘swarm behaviours’ of
the players in the innovation ecosystem• Once the move is made, the ecosystem is
changed, which opens up fresh possibilities

NICTA
• Australia’s National ICT Centre of Excellence
• 5 locations: – Sydney (2), Canberra, Melbourne, Brisbane
• University and State Government Partnerships– Key high-quality researchers.
• ~$80m (RMB 550 million) budget per year

Goals
• Research Excellence– Top 10 worldwide in ICT
• Wealth Creation for Australia– Including
• productivity improvements, • new business creation• new economic niches

NICTA = Innovation Ecosystem?
• Build network of best capability around Australia
• Understands time shear – long-term and short-term investments
• Self-organising & ‘swarming’ – significant group independence to explore– Leads to emergent outcomes rather than top-
down planned activities• We understand our niche target areas

Impact
• 3 bn mobile phones worldwide run NICTA technologies
• Many airports use our people tracking capabilities
• We are participating in the Australian Bionic Eye project
• We are building a system to support organisational innovation and growth in Queensland (then all of Australia)
