    Hi Howard,


    Thank you for your email dated 5 August.

    Unfortunately, I haven't been actively involved with the IET for the past few years because of work and family commitments.

    However, you might like to contact Ljubo Vlacic at l.vlacic@griffith.edu.au who is the new Chair, the IET Qld Network Committee in Queensland.

    There is an Industry Night event coming up on Wednesday 21st August 2019.  For more details, please contact 
    Jeremy Lai, jeremy.lai@ietvolunteer.org
    Regards

  • Hi Howard,


    Here are the details of the Industry Night - an event for all members.

    The IET On Campus at QUT (IET QUT) will be co-hosting their 2019 Semester 2 Industry Night with QUT Electrical Engineering Student Society (EESS) and QUT Aerospace Student Society on the 21st of August at The Warehouse, Fortitude Valley.
     
    The aim of our bi-annual industry night is to provide engineering students with greater exposure to industry pioneer. We believe that this will be a great opportunity for students to connect with industry guests, and companies also will benefit from meeting high achieving, passionate and soon-to-be graduates. 
    The evening will begin with short presentations from the co-hosts and sponsors, followed by three short rounds of trivia (one round per club), then the remainder of the night will be pure networking between students and industry guests. The evening will be fully catered, and beverages will be provided for all guests.

    Time: 5:30pm for 6:00 pm start - 9:30pm
    Date: Wednesday, 21st August 2019
    Location: The Warehouse – 8 MacLachlan St, Fortitude Valley
    Cost: $25 Per Representative, Free for IET Members

  • Hi,


    I just arrived Brisbane and missed the Industry Night event on 21-Aug (Wed). When will be the next event please? Thank you.


    Best Regards,

    Howard
  • The next event is a visit to the Telstra 5G Innovation Centre on Thursday 10th Oct. An official email will go out probably within 1 week as the date for this has only just been finalised. This will be an afterlunch visit. I will add to the event schedule here in the meantime.
  • Hi Craig,


    Many thanks!


    Best Regards,

    Howard
