Born in WA: Commercialising the Power of the Ocean

Turning WA’s ocean power into commercial reality with Tim Green of WaveX.
What does it take to turn world-class research into technology that can survive the ocean, attract investment and compete in global energy markets? Join RMBWA and Tim Green of WaveX for a practical conversation about WA innovation, entrepreneurship, risk, leadership and the demanding journey from promising idea to commercial reality.
Western Australia has always looked to the ocean for opportunity. Now, a local company is working to convert the movement of that ocean into reliable, commercially viable energy.
Tim Green, Operations Manager at WaveX, has spent more than 20 years leading complex offshore and maritime projects. Today, he is helping move Australian wave energy technology beyond modelling and research environments and towards real-world deployment.
Tim will share the realities of taking advanced research into one of the harshest operating environments on earth, and the leadership required when technology, capital, regulators, partners and physical risk all meet.
If you are interested in innovation, entrepreneurship, investment, energy, business growth or the difficult middle ground between a clever idea and a credible enterprise, this conversation is for you.
