Featuring three outstanding innovators, Dr Lei Bao, Dr Marzi Barghamadi and Dr Jiahui Li, this special event brings together diverse perspectives spanning advanced materials, nanotechnology, clean energy, health technologies, research leadership and STEM education. Discover their journeys, the challenges they have overcome, and how they are turning scientific excellence into meaningful impact.

A special highlight will be the Australian Nano-Manufacturing Future Challenge (ANMFC), an ATSE-sponsored initiative that empowers young Australians to become creators, problem-solvers and future technology leaders. Through hands-on experiences with AI, advanced manufacturing and emerging technologies, ANMFC is connecting classrooms with world-leading research and industry, demonstrating that innovation begins with curiosity, creativity and the confidence to turn ideas into reality.

More than a showcase of scientific achievements, this is a celebration of people, possibilities and Australia’s innovation future.
