The Victorian Government continues to push its credentials as a technology-savvy government and to ramp up its efforts to promote Victoria as a ‘globally sophisticated ICT market’, to attract new investment in the tech sector and to deliver e-services to the community utilising high-speed broadband and the NBN.
Yesterday, as reported by iTWire, the government touted the decision by ICT solutions company, Data#3, to open its new integration centre in the Melbourne suburb of Braeside, creating an additional 25 new jobs in Victoria.
And, today it announced new initiatives to exploit the opportunities offered by broadband and the NBN, trotting out projects designed to bring a range of e-services to special groups like the elderly or to communities in regional areas of the state.
