Network
The STCRC Network has been re-established to strengthen and broaden information sharing and discussion for the benefit of STCRC partners, other industry stakeholders and STCRC management for the purpose of delivering research outcomes supporting the tourism and related industries. It is comprised of a large body of academic, industry and government participants involved and/or interested in the STCRC and their outputs.

ACT and Tasmanian Network meetings will be coordinated by the STCRC.
The role of the Network meetings will be to:
- Provide networking opportunities for all STCRC partners and a wider group of industry stakeholders. (National tourism organisations and associations, State and Territory branches of national industry associations, State/Territory government agencies with an interest in STCRC outcomes and State Tourism Industry Councils, will be invited to participate in network meetings.)
- Discuss new research project ideas.
- Gain a broad understanding of STCRC activities. The STCRC CEO or the Director of Research will attend each network meeting with a presentation on research, education, extension and commercialisation activities.
