OUR MISSION & PURPOSE
Through strategic collaboration and cutting-edge technology, we envisage a future where Western Australia is a global hub for technical excellence, driving economic prosperity, sustainability, and societal well-being for all.
To support this, WAITTA runs two award programs that foster the next generation of technology leaders, and recognise industry peers making a mark on the state, national and international landscape. Alongside recognising excellence, WAITTA runs a third annual program - a fundraiser opportunity for the sector to give back.
Since 1991, the INCITE Awards have recognised technology innovation and excellence in Western Australia. As the state's longest running
technology awards, INCITE showcases and supports the technology sector by providing a pathway to the national iAwards and international
Asia-Pacific ICT Alliance Awards (APICTA).
The inaugural Game Changer Awards were held in 2017 and is an opportunity for children in Year 3 to Year 10, to showcase their innovative
solutions to the world's challenges, using project-based learning, STEM skills, project-based learning, organisation, teamwork and
presentation skills. The Game Changer Awards is an opportunity to showcases WA STEM Programs and the innovation shown by the next
generation.
In 2020, WAITTA has joined forces with Perth Children’s Hospital Foundation and the generous IT Industry to raise much needed funds to
ensure our sick kids and young people continue to receive world class paediatric care. This event promotes good business amongst the sector
and provides an important opportunity for industry professionals to network, raise vital funds and importantly, to have lots of fun
throughout the day.
