The technologists in charge of planning should hear from a representative range of constituents, including those who do not see their life as lacking because they do not have plans to use the Internet. Expense of ongoing network upgrades Bringing broadband to low population areas is very expensive. Maintaining and making the second and third generation upgrades to these networks can be a cost that is not anticipated. COMMERCIAL IN CONFIDENCE 112
THEBARTON PRECINCT & CHARLES STURT COUNCIL’S DIGITAL PRECINCT Interview Team This was a group visit for all of the Austin team. Who we met with The tours of Adelaide University’s Thebarton Commerce and Research Precinct and its adjacent BioScience Complex (John Hodges) and the Charles Sturt Council’s Digital Precinct (Carol Hampton) were conducted Tuesday afternoon, July 10 th . Rex Hunter, Thebarton’s director, conducted the tour of the facilities. Adelaide University opened the Thebarton Precinct in 1992. This commerce and research precinct is the former site of a pharmaceutical manufacturing company. The Precinct is less than 4km from Adelaide’s central business district and comprises 5 hectares of office, laboratory, manufacturing, and warehouse space. Carol Hampton, Manager Economic Development for Charles Sturt Council organized the tour of the Digital Precinct. The aim of the Precinct, which was established in August 1997, is to create an environment to attract multimedia and digital technology businesses, which could share resources and benefit from synergies. This also served the purpose of revitalizing a portion Charles Sturt’s business district, which had fallen into decline. Opportunities • Adelaide University and University of South Australia should look closely at ways of developing synergistic approaches between their Thebarton and Mawson Lakes facilities and programs. Among other things, this could offer Thebarton companies greater access to the benefits of the larger corporate cultures at Mawson Lakes who possibly could reciprocate by utilizing some of the resources of the smaller nimble companies of Thebarton. • There might also be similar synergies that Adelaide University and Charles Sturt Council could cultivate between the Thebarton and Digital Precincts. • Thebarton should consider ways that could increase the number of their start-up companies that have high growth targets, such as, a combination of training initiatives and screening criteria. • The Premier's Department and Adelaide University should strongly consider continuing the Premier's Enterprise Scholarship beyond 2002. The original commitment was only for three years • The Inner West Business Enterprise Centre and the Exporters’ Club should be considered as an additional resource to assist with business development for Adelaide University’s BIG and PES Programs • Charles Sturt Council should continue to find ways to encourage ties between resident companies and the Technology School of the Future (TSOF). This should be an effective approach towards the goal of developing a community aspect to the Digital Precinct.
