ADC Forum is an independent, not–for–profit organisation founded in 1996 bringing together the nation’s foremost decision makers and thought leaders across all sectors to focus on the issues that are critical to future prosperity.

Susan will be facilitating a panel discussion regarding engineering and physics at the event.

ADC Forum is an internationally connected community, enabling a strategic architecture for business to intersect with governments and academia across the world. ADC Forum brings a unique perspective, reflecting the changing nature of Australia and the world and strategically positioning Australia.

ADC Forum is able to draw on a network of leaders and the best thinkers across the globe to provide unique insights and challenge conventional wisdom. It takes a cross–sectoral approach to developing capacity for business, government, universities and broader civil society to jointly contribute to a resilient global system. Individual relationships and active engagement with partners are central to ADC Forum’s success and its capacity to provide access to global networks.

ADC is unique in combining a strong policy capability with credibility in the business sector, the capacity to incubate ideas and opportunities and the delivery of outcomes within the framework of an integrated strategy.

Hence, ADC is more than a think tank, and integral to its strength is its openness to collaborate with other institutions and organisations, reflected in a range of national and international agreements and working arrangements.
