Futurists, scientists and designers will share their expertise with Melbourne business owners at the inaugural Innovation Showcase on 16 June 2011.

The event at Hemisphere Conference Centre in Moorabbin will feature a Q & A panel led by the ABC's Virginia Trioli to discuss industry innovation in today's world of limited resources.

The South East Melbourne Innovation Precinct [SEMIP] is presenting the showcase, which aims to assist small to medium organisations in identifying business opportunities, as well as providing access to government representatives and the leaders of major research facilities.

Organisations involved in presentations, panels or breakout sessions include the CSIRO, Monash University, Carbon Planet and World-class local businesses such as Invetech, MiniFAB and Grey Innovation.

Topics relate to open innovation, biotechnology, medical technology and manufacturing. Businesses looking for opportunities in innovation and commercialisation should take advantage of the SEMIP Innovation Showcase.
