The Australian Space Summit 2025 (aka #AusSpace25 sees the best and brightest of the nation and beyond going to Sydney for an intense series of talks, panels, and networking in which we explore and shape Australia's space industry. An incredible event that I will hosted for the third year running, a true honour that I thank Space Connect for bravely/brilliantly (you pick) allowing me to have once more..!

I was particularly excited by the range of emerging and established companies and agencies (and their key decision-makers!) from around the world who came to the ICC in Sydney over two days (Tuesday 27th and Wednesday 28th of May). It’s fair to say this has been a tumultuous year in which our nation has experienced a range of changes, challenges, but also successes. One thing that hasn't changed, however, is the continued growth of the space industry globally, as well as that growth in importance in the Civil and Defence sectors alike.

Thrilled to be joining Bohdee Media as a science advisor! Adam Boland and his colleagues are astonishingly creative and accomplished storytellers *and* social/traditional media creators. And never have those communication skills been more needed… the challenges facing our world will require more science and technology not less, and that tech positive view needs to be heard more widely than ever.

Incredible news as one of the largest Federal Government’s Modern Manufacturing Initiative grants ($2.325M from Gov, for a total expenditure of $4.65M) is awarded to Titomic and Swinburne!

At EduTech in Sydney, my company mDetect unveiled the classroom-ready EduMOD detectors to bring the wonders of modern physics directly into the classroom, fostering curiosity and deeper understanding. Making abstract physics real and captivating for students, and increasing their engagement and interest in STEM careers - this isn't just about better grades; it's about inspiring future scientists, engineers, and innovators!

Hard to believe the iconic The Project is nearly over… it’s even harder to believe that’s ten years(!) since I failed to convince Freddie Flintoff about a new planet in our solar system (seriously I loved some of the guest hosts!), or getting to share cutting edge science on the desk in front of a live studio audience (I’m amazed my heartbeat wasn’t picked up by the mic), or the honour of a regular segment in over 50 appearances showcasing great science stories shared to Australia in the fun yet informative way only The Project managed to do so well for so many years.
