TelSoc is pleased to host with the Australian Computer Society (ACS) the annual Henry Sutton Oration in Melbourne to commemorate the distinguished Victorian scientist, engineer and inventor from Ballarat, Henry Sutton - who is scarcely known, but had a string of accomplishments and innovations in many areas.

This year, we are pleased to have a distinguished academic and serial innovator in his own right who has agreed to give the 2016 oration: Professor Alex Grant, CEO of Myriota, founder of Cohda Wireless and previously Professor of Information Theory at the University of SA: ?Satellites, Cars and the Internet of Things: The challenges and rewards of crossing the boundary between academia and industry?

Please join TelSoc and ACS for a live broadcast of the event in Sydney, which is being kindly sponsored by Myriota Pty Ltd (www.myriota.com (link is external)).
