Innovation
Innovation involves the process of discovering new ideas and realising those ideas at large scale. In the context of a local economy, collaborative and successful environments for innovation, emerge from diverse and robust entrepreneurship, and innovation ecosystems.
It is Council’s aim to position Waverley for the 21st century by supporting innovation and the local economy.
Waverley Council has two strategies in place to help achieve this aim.
Waverley Innovation Roadmap 2025
Inspired by the future. Driven by ambition. Always resilient.
This roadmap supports our local business community with transitioning into the future. It will nurture the local innovation ecosystem and encourages sustainable job growth.
Council has committed to understanding and driving local innovation through a range of key actions to strengthen Waverley’s innovation and job growth. Waverley’s strategy will support the growing innovation ecosystem. This roadmap fills that crucial gap, to provide strategic direction and actions in the short term.
Key projects currently being delivered:
- Continue delivering an annual innovation forum.
- Deliver an innovation program (Thinker-in-residence at the Boot Factory).
- Deliver collaborative and innovative programming for the Boot Factory.
- Workshops for businesses.
- Host a business pitching event centred on innovation.
Smart Waverley
Council recognises the future is increasingly digital and is committed to transitioning the community into the future of smart technology. Waverley Council has already delivered a range of Smart City related projects since 2015 and since then, multiple teams across Council have contributed significantly to development of the Smart Waverley Strategy 2023. This strategy sets the direction for a smarter more connected community. The strategy was awarded finalist status by the Smart Cities Council of Australia and New Zealand at their annual awards during Smart City Week in 2019.

Smart Cities
Smart technology interacts with our lives every single day with a focus of making life easier and more connected. It represents a step forward for the entire Waverley community, creating a more seamless experience through digital access to information, enhanced service delivery for customers and staff, management efficiencies through linked systems, physical improvements to public spaces, and enabling job growth in relation to innovation.

The Smart Waverley Program involves the implementation of actions from the strategy. Actions have been divided into 6 key priority areas. Responsibility of delivery belongs to respective teams across the organisation.
