The speed at which digital technology is transforming our lives,
00:12
I think is beyond what any of us could ever have predicted.
00:15
Digitalisation has no boundaries, it has no borders.
00:19
Digital innovation, and in particular, digital transformation,
00:23
is impacting every sector of industry.
00:26
And in fact, every segment of our society.
00:28
One of the challenges I think for every sector is, how do you keep
00:31
pace with change?
00:33
Speed to market, agility, productivity.
00:36
But underpinned also by what is your workforce of the future
00:39
going to look like?
00:41
[Aleks] This partnership between RMIT and AWS,
00:43
focused on developing the first cloud supercomputing hub,
00:47
has many implications for government and industry.
00:52
[Samantha] Cloud-based technologies allow our customers to
00:55
operate their businesses on an open, secure and global platform.
01:00
Connected ecosystems in cloud technology allow us to take early
01:05
concepts to market faster.
01:07
It's pretty exciting that RMIT is at the centre of leading the next
01:11
wave of technology innovation.
01:13
They include automation, cloud, artificial intelligence,
01:18
data science, data analytics.
01:21
[Aleks] RMIT, with our strategic industry partners,
01:24
is very much focused on establishing a systems approach.
01:28
The strategic partnership with RMIT and Siemens software,
01:32
is very important to the future of our economy, our businesses and
01:37
digital transformation.
01:39
We are able to provide seamless access to all of our industry
01:43
partners and other stakeholders working with us.
01:47
RMIT is a wonderful institution.
01:48
At its core, it's very applied.
01:50
It's working on artificial intelligence, machine learning,
01:53
cloud-based computing and cyber security to name but a few.
01:57
And those are the skills that every sector needs to
01:59
transform tomorrow.
02:01
[Samantha] So, to come together, industry and academia,
02:04
we have world-renowned universities here.
02:07
And that will make a successful partnership for all of us.
02:10
[Aleks] This is about shaping the future of learning and work
02:13
through partnership and industry.
02:15
To help them, not only stay relevant today, but develop
02:18
capabilities to help create and transform tomorrow.
