As the largest innovation community in Australia, Stone & Chalk continually strives to create atmospheres of collaboration and growth. On the 11th of May, we were proud to have co-hosted a space industry round table in our Adelaide Hub at Lot Fourteen alongside SmartSat CRC. The event brought together leading members of the space sector, innovators from our community, and Her Excellency the Honourable Frances Adamson AC, the Governor of South Australia. The support and presence of Her Excellency clearly indicated the significance of the space sector to the government in South Australia and the role that innovation and technology play in shaping the future of this industry.

Michael Bromley, CEO of the Stone & Chalk Group, stated, “We see space as more than just a niche industry, but rather a critical domain for innovation and global progress. The space industry has evolved beyond what the public may imagine of rockets, satellites and space infrastructure, and is now a thriving community that drives the evolution of technologies across all sectors.”

For South Australia, this is especially important as the state positions itself as a critical player in the global space industry. The state's success must continue to support and develop its space innovation community. 

The recent round table with Her Excellency has demonstrated that the impact of the space community touches all industries, innovation clusters and communities, and it is crucial to connect and inspire innovation and progress across all industries, driving South Australia forward. We look forward to working closely with the Government on similar initiatives in the future, and to hosting similar round tables in other areas such as Agtech, ClimateTech, Cyber Security, and more.

Stone & Chalk is committed to supporting the growth of the space sector and providing a platform for industry players to connect and collaborate. By bringing together diverse voices and perspectives, we can create a space for connection and belonging where everyone can contribute to the advancement of the industry and beyond.
