Startup Tasmania was proud to support the 2014 Tasmanian Breath of Fresh Air Film Festival in its Regional Innovation: State Growth forum.

Led by Dr Anton Kriz from the very successful Innov8Central, the forum explored Tasmania's strengths, potential for innovation and importantly, the actions that could be taken to propel Tasmania's economy forward by leveraging its currently latent potential through innovation in particular.

The sessions were inspirational, exploring how we understand Tasmania's capacity for innovation, and several important ideas have emerged that will be taken forward through structures that are being developed.

Watch this space: there is certainly more to come and startups will have an important place in the economy of Tasmania's future
