Show Notes

Invest SA has been re-established within the Department for Trade and Investment to focus on driving inbound international and national investment into South Australia – leveraging the state’s competitive strengths and competencies.

The Department for Trade and Investment worked with Deloitte to support them to establish a technology hub investment in Adelaide and worked with other government agencies to develop a skills and employment package to build linkages with universities and graduates. The department also provided assistance to Deloitte in Adelaide to enable them to highlight within their international representatives, the business case to show Adelaide is a place of relevance and economic benefit to Deloitte.

 Deloitte is expanding its Adelaide operations further with an additional 500 jobs (1,000 jobs available) and has also launched an Academy at The University of Adelaide.

 Showcasing the partnership between private enterprise and academia to help facilitate the supply chain of talent within South Australia, the Academy is a world-class, industry-aligned student experience program co-designed by Deloitte and the University of Adelaide.

In this segment, hear from Hendri Mentz, Deloitte Managing Partner, South Australia and John Williams, Executive Dean of the Faculty of Arts, Business, Law and Economics at The University of Adelaide.
