Dr KIEU (South Eastern Metropolitan) (09:50): The Australian Sports Technologies Network supporting the growth of our sports tech industry here in Victoria is fantastic. I was honoured to join them in celebrating their 10th anniversary last month on behalf of Minister Jaala Pulford. The launch of the ASTN Sports Innovation Report 2022 highlighted that Victoria is and continues to be a leader in sports innovation and technology. We are the home of more sports tech businesses than any other state or territory in Australia. The sector is generating $655 million in Victoria, almost half of the total amount generated across Australia. I am proud to be a member of the government that supported the Australian Sports Technologies Network with $4 million to establish their thriving centre of excellence based in Cremorne. Congratulations to ASTN for their phenomenal growth in the last 10 years, and best wishes for the next 10.
