Welcome to The University of Western Australia for the In the Zone Business Forum 2011.
Since the foundation of this University 100 years ago, it has been our vision to be “an intellectual and creative resource to the communities we serve.” In this modern era, the term ‘communities’ has broadened to encompass not only local and national communities but to a very large extent our international neighbours who share our time zone.
The social, environmental and economic well-being of all nations depends on strategic global partnerships in which our shared expertise will enable good policy decisions, research outcomes and problem-solving so that together we can address the challenges of the future.
We are sure that In the Zone, through providing a platform for discussion, debate and information sharing, will continue to provide insights and solutions of universal benefit.
