What is the Innovative Society Initiative?
The Innovative Society Initiative, supported by Lotterywest, exists to build a stronger culture of innovation and entrepreneurship in Western Australia – a “culture of innovation” that will help WA solve difficult and wicked problems and the impacts of disruption.
This needs investment in the skillsets, toolkits and mindsets of West Australians, not only to support individuals and ideas to thrive, but to build a more diverse, resilient community and economy. Building a stronger culture of innovation, throughout this Initiative, is measured in two ways.
By offering increased support for innovators in the early stage of their entrepreneurship journey, expanding the diversity of entrepreneurs and improving the number of high quality supporting structures and programs, West Australians will be enabled to explore innovation and improve their innovative capability.
In addition to this, an increase in initiatives being developed in a highly collaborative manner, a deep understanding of our local strengths and opportunities and a richness across the diversity of the ecosystem, representing the full geographical, cultural and societal strength of WA, will support a more resilient and sustainable ecosystem.
This Initiative will enable Spacecubed to create a pipeline of thriving resilient entrepreneurs, innovators and changemakers, as well as build a thriving, resilient and sustainable ecosystem.
