The future is digital and, as the digital space becomes an integrated part of modern life, the opportunities for digital economy businesses in the Northern Rivers continue to grow.
Improved Accessibility
Improvements to regional internet speeds are breaking down geographical barriers to regional work and lifestyle choices. Digital professionals need only a fast internet connection to gain market share. This allows for lifestyle options that include beach, forest and rural living, which have long served as an attraction for film and media professionals.
It is a key priority for the Northern Rivers region to take advantage of opportunities that have arisen from the rapid growth in new technology across industries. Many traditional industries that have underpinned the local economy, including agri-business, manufacturing and the service sector, are undergoing significant technological transformation. Interpreting these changes into a regional context and distribution of knowledge, practices and technologies are critical to ensure local industries remain competitive, nationally and globally. Increasing the value-adding to these industries is a high priority.
