Siemens and Flinders University announce collaboration
Siemens and Flinders University have announced that they have signed a memorandum of understanding for collaborating in the sectors of defence, energy efficiency, and food and beverages. The cooperation will see the university and the technology group developing new technologies and mobilising digital advancements.
“Gone are the days of siloed approaches between universities and industries. It’s only together that we can truly drive a future workforce with hi-tech skills and job-ready outcomes that will meet the needs of business and society,” said Siemens Australia Chairman and CEO Jeff Connolly.
The two organisations hope to boost South Australia’s industrial power and are working together in order to benefit the state, with particular emphasis on boosting its technology, digital prowess and sustainability.
“I want our university to be the source of Australia’s most enterprising graduates. And to achieve this we need to be working closely with the most enterprising companies who have passed the test of time,” said Flinders University President and Vice-Chancellor Professor Colin Stirling.
“Not only are Siemens the largest industrial software company, the largest automation company and behind much of the world’s electrification but they’re also part of the fabric of South Australia having founded the Australian business right here in 1872 with the commissioning of the Darwin–Adelaide overland telegraph.”
