BotL’s flagship program, The Law Tech Clinic educates and trains law students on legaltech, legalops and design thinking. A 2022 Alumni of Lander & Rogers Law Tech Hub, the clinic is a 12 week program that helps law students understand how technology can improve client experience by partnering with law firms to create a real ‘project’ that students can use design thinking techniques to create tech solutions. With a focus on no-code, the program has enhanced their law firm partner’s legaltech capabilities whilst educating law students on design thinking and building tech solutions.

Naomi Simson, who launched the Australian online success story RedBalloon, was on the panel at an event to celebrate the EY Entrepreneur of the Year 2023. She said "When someone is walking into a business and they are energised by its purpose, by the people that are around and if they are learning and growing, they are far more likely to commit. That human connection is what creates great businesses."I was very pleased to be invited to this Alumni event having been a judge in 200s, when the winner was David Bussau AM who founded Opportunity International Australia.

Natural seawater as an “almost infinite” feedstock for green hydrogen - that's the promise - following just-released research led by scientists at the University of Adelaide. Undertaken with Universities also in China and America, Associate Professor Yao Zheng said “Our work provides a solution to directly utilise seawater without
pre-treatment systems and alkali addition, which shows similar
performance as that of existing metal-based mature pure water
electrolyser.”See article below and also hear Idea Spies Energy Editor Kylie Hargreaves speak about this Tuesday 7th Feb 6pm via Climate & Peace webinar: www.climateandpeace.com.auhttps://www.innovationa
In today’s Australian Financial Review (2/2/23) the
assistant minister for competition, charities and Treasury, Andrew Leigh
called for more evidence to back government programs. Mr Leigh says: “Too many
programs start with too little evidence to back them up, and no study of what
worked and what did not. That is going to change.”
It would be a delight if the Albanese government
embraced the principle and practice behind the assistant minister’s article.
The Evidence-Based Policy Project has over recent
years demonstrated the poor policy outcomes delivered by governments not using
such an approach.
