Episode 3: UNSW Health Translation Hub – A Nexus of Innovation

Welcome to the third episode of Plenary’s podcast: UNSW Health Translation Hub – A Nexus of Innovation. In this episode, we’re diving into the question: how can the co-location of different disciplines under the banner of a place-based approach lead to breakthroughs in any one field? There’s no better site to examine this question than the UNSW Health Translation Hub, which opened late last year. Spread across 35,600 square meters, the UNSW Health Translation Hub brings together educational and medical researchers, clinicians, educators, industry partners and public health officials – all within the Randwick Health & Innovation Precinct. Join various experts who have been instrumental in the Hub’s development, and chart how it’s set to revolutionise the landscape of healthcare, medical research and health education in Australia and beyond.

Episode 1: Introduction to Shaping Infrastructure

Welcome to the inaugural episode of Plenary’s podcast Shaping Infrastructure. In this introductory episode, we’re diving into a big question: What role can infrastructure play in addressing some of our most pressing economic, societal and environmental challenges?  We’re living through a moment of immense complexity and hardship for many people. Rising living costs are putting pressure on everyone. Housing shortages have left many struggling to find a place to call home. Public services are stretched thin. And the impacts of climate change worryingly grow more evident day by day. In this episode, we’ll explore why governments and the private sector must push past traditional boundaries to create the public infrastructure our future demands.   Host: Sonia Nair, Plenary Communications and Content Manager Guests: Plenary Chair Paul Oppenheim, Plenary Chief Executive David Lamming, Plenary Chief Investment Officer and incoming Chief Executive Paul Crowe See omnystudio.com/listener [https://omnystudio.com/listener] for privacy information.
