The Innovation Lecture is a major event on the Warren Centre's annual calendar. Over the past 30 years, our Innovation Lectures have received enthusiastic support from the technological and engineering community, with many of Australia’s innovation heroes amongst the speakers.
This year the lecture will be delivered by Andrew Liveris AO, former Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of The Dow Chemical Company and former Executive Chairman of DowDuPont.
Andrew, a global business leader and second-generation Greek Australian, rose from his humble background in Darwin to lead a global Fortune 50 corporation. Andrew advised three US Presidents and most recently the Australian Government with his role at the National COVID-19 Commission. Andrew advocates for the criticality of manufacturing in building valuable skills and delivering solutions for this century, an era of sustainability, digitalisation and geo-political dynamism.
