About Portable
For the past decade, Portable
has been at the centre of design
and web innovation across
Australia and internationally.
We believe in Government and in its
power to create widespread, meaningful
change. However, we continually come
across individuals working to make
great change but who are unable to
get projects over the line, who fail to
mediate minor technical hurdles and
who see their work falter just when it is
gathering steam and interest. As part
of this report, we interviewed over one
hundred people in Government roles,
looked at successful and failed projects
and identified some of the critical factors
required for people working in policy and
policy implementation to be successful in
innovating.
We believe Government already has
good, innovative and intelligent people
working within its walls and we continue
to strive to help those people create
positive change.
