Swinburne University of Technology’s Centre for Design Innovation (CDI) builds upon the university’s existing research strengths to foster human-scale, user-focused, design-led innovation for postgraduates. At CDI, researchers transform deviously complex problems into innovative solutions with both commercial and humanitarian benefits.

This event brings together a product exhibition and panel discussion, showcasing products designed to help Australian manufacturers diversify. The session aims to provide practical, tangible examples of how manufacturers can work with universities to meaningfully engage with design, and to diversify both their business products and productivity.

This event is made possible by the Hugh D T Williamson Foundation through funding for MPavilion’s series of events looking at design & science.
