Mobility Mesh Cluster

Mobility Mesh

The Minister for Information and Communication Technology launched Australia's first mobile data industry cluster "MobilityVic" in Broadmeadows on 6 June 2007.

It received $100,000 seed funding under the Government's $1 million ICT Linkages Program. MobilityVic is a not-for-profit organisation that aims to unite and educate mobile content/service developers, and to promote and represent its constituents to the broader industry and Government. MobilityVic strives to represent the Victorian mobile data industry as world leaders in innovation and technology.

The MobilityVic cluster is comprised of MAP Venture Partners Holdings Pty Ltd, Hume City Council, Ericsson Australia, Intel Corporation, Hyro Ltd, Swinburne University Of Technology (SUT), M2M Connectivity, Australian Broadcasting Corporation – New Media, Mdigital, Film Victoria, Asatori, Galbraith & Company, Bigpond Mobile Network and QMCodes.

These organisations boast the most comprehensive mobile testing equipment in the Asia Pacific region. This collaborative approach means Victorian ICT companies are on a fast track to commercial success with their new mobile products, giving our companies a competitive edge.

The role of MobilityVic is:

to promote and represent mobile content/service developers across industry and government;

to provide an environment where constituents can exchange/develop/test ideas;

to provide an advisory panel where technical and commercial experience can assist fledgling mobile content/service businesses; and

to assist the commercialisation of new mobile products/services.
