5. Macro-environment and economy Australia’s innovation dilemma; a systemic challenge in translating innovation inputs to outcomes, constraining productivity performance. 10 th in the world for innovation inputs, 22 nd for innovation outcomes, 81 st for innovation efficiency (Global Innovation Index). The digital revolution; information intensive science, systems and industries transforming everything. Massive increases in the volume, value, velocity of data, the power of digital platforms and capacity for insight from cosmic to atomic scale. Global change, integration and interdependence; of human and environmental systems, science, commerce and innovation. Increasing risk and opportunity. Shift of economic, social and environmental influence towards Asia and developing economies. Collaborative innovation; shift to networked and global innovation models, customer supply choices and global competition goes up. Requires effective models for market vision, multi and inter disciplinary research and capability integration. Policy alignment A changing Australian economy requiring new growth engines; priority industry growth centre opportunities in advanced manufacturing, food and agribusiness, medical technologies and pharmaceuticals, mining equipment, technology and services, oil, gas and energy resources. Responding to national research priorities; in food, soil and water, transport, cybersecurity, energy, resources, advanced manufacturing, environmental change and health.
