Consistent messages ?
deliver an integrated data- intensive infrastructure incorporating physical infrastructure, policies, data,
softw are, tools and support for researchers
promote national coherence cloud computing, H P C, netw orks, access,
authentication and trusted data repositories, data, collaboration, softw are, services, & skills
why? W hat’s the impact w e’re aiming for?
▪ To deliver a w orld- leading data advantage ,
▪ To accelerate innovation ,
▪ To improve collaboration for borderless research,
▪ To facilitate translation of research into outputs for a better w orld
Thereby making A ustralia’s researchers as globally competitive and advantaged as possible

▪ In each of these cases it’s the functionality that’s important:- Publication services promote and facilitate quality & accessibility- Nectar Cloud pioneered a sector-based federated research cloud- Virtual Labs made new spaces for collaboration and democratised access
to high quality research tools- National Collections identified, curated, and preserved data as national
infrastructure- Skills and workforce development enable effective use and practices- Policy and consulting provide the frameworks within which it all works
▪ 2018 – 2023 ARDC Funding:- $110m operations- $70m capital
▪ Around $180m (internal and external investments)

Q&A
The questions for you
- what we should do more of (or start doing), - what we should do less of (or stop doing), - what should we do differently?
Questions
And..
Would you have answered differently if you were thinking of where we want to be in 25 years as opposed to 5?
