Science & Technology Australia Competitors

For more than a century, we've been improving the lives of people everywhere with our science. Since we started life as the Advisory Council of Science and Industry in 1916, we've advanced Australia with a range of inventions and innovations that have had significant positive impact on the lives of people around the world. These include fast WiFi, polymer banknotes, the CSIRO Total Wellbeing Diet, and Aerogard, just to name a few. We work with industry, government and the research community to turn science into solutions to address Australia's greatest challenges, including food security and quality; sustainable energy and resources; health and wellbeing; resilient and valuable environments; future industries; and a secure Australia and region.

We are stewards of the environment and drivers of secure, reliable and affordable energy for all Australians. Our work spans environment protection, energy, climate change and heritage, including on-ground operations in Commonwealth national parks and Antarctica. As policy advisers, regulators, program managers and communicators, we work closely with the community, scientists, farmers, land managers, business, government and not-for-profit organisations in all that we do.
