Technology is changing the face of education and research. By harnessing what it offers, we can learn more, do more, and be more connected, here and across the globe.

It will feature booths for staff and students to enjoy, Tech Talks for ×îÐÂÌÇÐÄVlog of Adelaide staff, and some interactive activities. Also, some prizes!

The Showcase will be opened by the ×îÐÂÌÇÐÄVlog of Adelaide's Chief Operating Officer Bruce Lines and begin with a keynote address for ×îÐÂÌÇÐÄVlog staff from Apple, with a special focus on the higher education sector.
