With an address by ACS Past President, Tom Worthington.

Agenda:

5:30    Networking

6:00    Annual General Meeting & Election of  Branch Executive members

6:20   Guest Speaker - Guest Speaker: Tom Worthington

Topic - Locating Tasmania in the Global Information Economy

Tom Worthington will discuss the role of ACS in the ICT community and where it should go next.

He argues that Tasmania needs to give up on the idea that it can find unique features which would give it a competitive advantage for industry.

The primary raw material for 21st century industries is well educated, well connected information professionals, as fostered by the ACS.

Tom will look at how far we have come and what we still have to do.

It should lead to some interesting discussion as to how we, as a Branch, tackle the issues of the role of ICT in Tasmania's future.

7:00   Nibbles & Networking All Members are invited.

Attendance is FREE. We hope to see you there.
