WINN is a new collaboration between many of the Innovators in the region, aimed at consolidating innovation support activities, creating a community of innovators and ensuring that our innovative history continues into our innovative future.
Its vision is to be a catalyst for innovation, fostering a vibrant and inclusive environment; creating connections to enable people and communities to form successful collaborations. A pivotal advocate for innovation that develops, elevates, manages and influences a collective strategy; co-ordinating and delivering interventions that benefit innovators, enablers and exploiters with the innovation ecosystem.
