CORE is where the resources & energy sector powers the enterprises of tomorrow.
CORE was established in Perth in 2016 with a vision of bringing solutions and opportunities from new technologies, startups and entrepreneurs to the well-established resources industry.
Together with our Foundation Partners Minerals Council of Australia, METS Ignited, Austmine, WesTrac, Unearthed and Spacecubed, we are providing an ecosystem that enables innovative technologies to flourish, addressing grand challenges in the sector and strengthening Australia’s reputation as a global resources technology innovation hub.
In 2020 we launched a new Hub at Lot Fourteen in Adelaide with the support of the Department for Energy & Mining and are continuing to foster a thriving ecosystem across South Australia.
We now offer many of our events and entrepreneurial development programs in virtual format to encourage national participation in COVID safe conditions.
“Australia is already a global resources hub, but we risk losing the immense opportunities from digital technologies if we don’t drive commercialisation of this capability into the sector. With our industry partners, through Unearthed our resident accelerator, and integrated within FLUX, Perth’s largest co-working and entrepreneur space, CORE provides an environment that creates these connections.
This is part of aligning a vision for Australia with our strengths, and pursuing a strategy where we dominate resources technology as a globally disruptive domain.”
“CORE assists by keeping us in the loop about everything that their Foundation Partners and other resources companies, government organisations and startups are doing.
CORE hosts valuable events and programs that provide us with access to networking, funding and resourcing opportunities.
Moreover, CORE’s proximity to all the big energy and resources organisations is a massive advantage.”
