At the National Press Club, the Hon Karen Andrews MP, Minister for Industry, Science and Technology said what was needed was a change in the culture of how we think about our capability, about how we challenge the status quo. Frankly, what we needed, she said, was disruption. How do we keep the momentum alive?
