As politicians attempt to woo rural voters, a new report titled "Framing Rural: How language can help or hinder the case for rural investment", written by Katherine Lewis and Professor Tom MacMillan from the RAU, suggests that as long as the messaging is right, most people are open to the case for investing more in rural areas, rather than having strong prior views.

'Innovation Districts and the Centrality of Land' shines a bright light on the role 'land' plays in the development and ultimate success of an innovation district. More than just a physical asset in place-based thinking, land is presented in the article as an asset more akin to the proverbial multifunctional Swiss Army knife. As a catalyser of infrastructure, as a magnet for community, as a driver of independent revenue and much, much more. An important finding is that districts are waiting too long to recognise and think about governance and the important role land and land ownerships plays in district development. Innovation districts are complex, multi-faceted enterprises that play a long game. 'Innovation Districts and the Centrality of Land' explains how recognising the role of land beyond just its physical value can accelerate the journey and on the flip-side, how ignoring it will be at your peril.

As we prepare for our upcoming CEO Engagement with Premier Alan Winde, I am reminded of the critical importance of collaboration between business and government for the growth and prosperity of our region. The convergence of political and business interests presents a unique opportunity to foster dialogue and alignment on key economic strategies. By bringing together leaders from both sectors, we can address shared challenges, align our priorities, and work towards a unified approach that propels regional growth and enhances policy effectiveness. This engagement is not just about discussing issues; it’s about forging partnerships that strengthen our local economies and contribute to the overall prosperity of both public and private entities. Together, we can create a resilient and thriving environment that benefits all stakeholders in the Western Cape. I look forward to welcoming Premier Winde as we explore how we can collaborate effectively to achieve our shared objectives. #AccelerateCT #CEOEngagement #PremierAlanWinde #PublicPrivatePartnership #WesternCape #EconomicGrowth

As a Queensland resident and a business owner, I am very interested in the outcome of the local government elections that will take place on March 28. Local councils play a vital role in providing services and infrastructure that affect our daily lives and our economic development. That's why I encourage everyone to exercise their democratic right and vote for the candidates that best represent their interests and values. I have been following the campaigns of the various candidates and I have been impressed by the diversity and quality of the ideas and proposals they have put forward. Some of the key issues that I think are important for the future of our state are: - How to manage the recovery from the COVID-19 pandemic and support the health and wellbeing of our communities. - How to foster innovation and entrepreneurship and create more jobs and opportunities for our workforce. - How to balance environmental sustainability and economic growth and address the challenges of climate change and waste management. - How to improve the quality and accessibility of public transport, roads, parks, libraries, and other amenities. - How to enhance the social cohesion and inclusion of our diverse and multicultural population. These are not easy questions to answer, but I believe that with constructive dialogue and collaboration, we can find solutions that work for everyone. That's why I urge you to do your research, get informed, and make your voice heard. The future of Queensland depends on it.
