These include: Expert Connect (https://expertconnect.global/), Innovation Challenge marketplace (https://expertconnect.global/challenge/results) and InnovationMap (https://www.data61.csiro.au/Map). I'd be very interested to connect with anyone with relevant data (or who would like to make use of our data), and anyone who has an innovation challenge we might be able to help solve.

I also have a range of business interests that I'd be happy to connect with people about, including www.ecolour.com.au (non-toxic paint), and www.ethitrade.com.au (blockchain based provenance tracking for produce - currently working on tracking dragon fruit from Vietnam)
