Northern Territory’s Digital Future

We’re inspiring women and the next generation to take up careers in tech.

The NT Government launched the Digital Territory Strategy and Action Plan in 2018 and set the future

digital direction for the Northern Territory.

The Strategy maps out a plan that will enable Territorians to get the most out of the digital

opportunities and challenges now and into the future.

As part of the Action Plan, this will be our inaugural two-part event for Territorians on

Wednesday 29 May 2019 at the Darwin Convention Centre.

We will feature a morning and afternoon session

with the same goal of inspiring Territorians to take up careers in the IT and digital industry.
