As a pioneering forum, AIRG has enabled industrial innovators to share insights and overcome challenges in transforming research into commercial success. . . In a strategic move [not dated] to strengthen Australia's innovation landscape, the Australian Industry Group (Ai Group) has now integrated AIRG's resources and expertise into its newly formed Emerging Industries Council (EIC). This merger combines AIRG's deep innovation expertise with Ai Group's strong policy advocacy, creating a more powerful platform for advancing Australia's industrial capabilities."

Quote from a submission (undated) to the Australian parliament: "The Australian Industrial Research Group (AIRG) is an organisation devoted to fostering innovation and R&D within Australian businesses. The organisation has existed since 1964 and its membership is largely composed of senior innovation and R&D executives within Australian companies, as well as other groups with interests in the commercialistion of innovation and R&D. Details of AIRG's operations can be found in its website at www.airg.org.au.

AIRG membership has significant representation of established R&D operations in many Australian industry sectors, including,
• mining,
• machinery and equipment manufacturers,
• petroleum, coal and chemical manufacturers,
• food and beverages,
• metal product manufacturing,
• information technology and communication,
• wood and paper product manufacturing, and
• health and biotechnology.

AIRG has, however, faced more challenges in recent years than at any other time in its long history. This is due to the declining role of innovation and R&D in the above sectors, and we therefore believe that this inquiry is most relevant and timely."
