Imagine being on a chartered Qantas flight from San Francisco to Brisbane with 300+ of Silicon Valley's finest minds...well that is exactly what MyriadAir is. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Showcasing a myriad of perspectives, experiences & opportunities - unlocked by technology - the 14-hour flight was amazing as people moved between the classes & made connections with like- & different-minded people. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Queensland's Chief Entrepreneur, Steve Baxter, even ran the drinks 'Pitch' trolley as entrepreneurs pitched to him during the drinks service. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ On arrival, the entire flight was given a warm Aboriginal welcome, followed by speeches from Kate Jones, MP [the Minister for Innovation & Tourism Industry Development], Steve Baxter & Myriad cofounders Murray Galbraith & Martin Talvari. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ This photo essay includes: ▪ The entire group of MyriadAir attendees before boarding the flight. ▪ Steve Baxter having a pre-flight interview. ▪ Myriad conference speakers, Daniel Abrahams & Karla Ballard Williams, connecting on LinkedIn. ▪ Entrepreneurs making short videos explaining their ideas. ▪ Steve Baxter listening to ideas during the drinks 'Pitch' trolley. ▪ Innovators & entrepreneurs making great new connections. ▪ The strong party atmosphere of the flight - with many getting very little sleep. ▪ MP Kate Jones, Steve Baxter & Ian Thorpe engaging with the team from Bond University. ▪ Myriad team members enjoying time with keynote speakers. ▪ Thanks to Myriad, the Queensland Government, Bank of Queensland, Bond University, Qantas & the other sponsors for the incredible experience. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Myriad is such an inclusive cultural experiment where attendees have a relentless pursuit of shared learning, a search for meaning behind our actions & the acceptance of people using technology to improve the world. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Don't miss this opportunity.

Attending the Myriad Conference in Brisbane from May 16-18, 2018 has been an amazing experience; the wealth of talent from the attendees is astounding but what has impressed me the most is the inspirational women from very different backgrounds & industries that I have met. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ One such person is Taryn Williams, CEO & Founder of the The Right Fit & WINK Models. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ During her interview on stage, Taryn was very open about the challenges that she had faced in starting her online influencer & talent platform [theright.fit], which is now used by major advertising agencies & brands to find the best talent for their jobs. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Despite being one of Australia’s top young female entrepreneurs with 15+ years experience in the world of modelling, media & advertising, Taryn admitted that there was a very steep learning curve involved with launching & running the new influencer platform & her honesty on the topic was very refreshing. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Taryn has received numerous awards & it is easy to see why; her talent is obvious but she has also been prepared to work hard to make her businesses a success. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ She is not only very personable but an inspiration for girls & young women everywhere & I am glad that my 11yo & 8yo daughters have such a strong role model to aspire to be like. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ The sky's the limit for Taryn & she will do well in her future endeavours because she is willing to challenge paradigms. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ I want to acknowledge 2 other people for inspiring me to focus on inspirational women from the conference: ▪ Stephanie Downs: CEO / Co-Founder of gooddot.in - a social enterprise manufacturing plant-based meats in India. ▪ Inga Stasiulionyte: Head of Sports Entrepreneurship Bootcamp, MIT. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Don't miss the opportunity.

The impact of Industry 4.0 on supply chain management

The way businesses move goods has quietly transformed over the past decade. If you’ve noticed faster deliveries or better tracking updates, you’ve already experienced the impact of Industry 4.0 on supply chain management. This shift isn’t just about machines – it’s about smarter, more connected systems working together.

What is Industry 4.0 Doing Differently?

At its core, Industry 4.0 brings technologies like IoT, AI, and automation into everyday operations. In supply chain management, this means real-time visibility. Companies no longer have to guess where a shipment is or how long it will take. Instead, data flows continuously, helping teams make quicker, better decisions.

The impact of Industry 4.0 on supply chain management becomes clear when delays happen. Earlier, disruptions caused chaos. Now, predictive analytics can flag risks before they become real problems, giving businesses time to adjust routes or suppliers.

Smarter, Faster, and More Transparent Supply Chains

One of the biggest changes is transparency. Customers expect to know everything – from order confirmation to final delivery. With Industry 4.0 tools, businesses can provide that clarity without extra effort.

Automation is also reducing manual work. Tasks like inventory tracking, demand forecasting, and warehouse management are now handled by intelligent systems. This not only saves time but also minimises human error. The impact of Industry 4.0 on supply chain management here is both practical and measurable – fewer mistakes and faster operations.

Key Benefits Businesses Are Seeing

Many companies are already experiencing the advantages of adopting Industry 4.0 in supply chain management:

Faster decision-making with live data insights

Reduced human errors through automation

Increased transparency for customers

Lower operational costs over time

These changes highlight how the impact of Industry 4.0 on supply chain management is both practical and measurable in day-to-day operations.

Challenges Still Exist

Of course, the transition isn’t always smooth. Adopting new technologies requires investment and skilled talent. Many companies struggle with integrating old systems with modern solutions.

While the progress is impressive, it’s not without hurdles:

High initial investment in technology

Need for skilled workforce

Difficulty integrating legacy systems

Still, most organizations find that the long-term gains outweigh these short-term challenges.

Looking Ahead

As technology continues to evolve, the impact of Industry 4.0 on supply chain management will only deepen. Businesses that adapt early are likely to stay ahead, offering better service and building stronger customer trust.

In the end, it’s not just about technology—it’s about creating supply chains that are more responsive, reliable, and ready for whatever comes next.

How can cloud computing benefit manufacturing plants?

Manufacturing IT is no longer just about keeping systems running—it’s about enabling smarter, faster, and more connected factories. As production environments become more complex, manufacturers need technology that can adapt quickly. This is where cloud computing plays a powerful role, helping plants modernise without disrupting daily operations.

Key Benefits for Manufacturing Plants 

1. Better Visibility Across Operations 

Manufacturers can no longer rely on delayed reports. With centralised platforms, production data is available in real time.

Monitor machine performance instantly

Track inventory and material flow

Identify bottlenecks before they impact output

2. Lower IT Costs and Faster Scaling 

Traditional infrastructure can be expensive and slow to expand. Using **cloud computing, plants can:

Avoid large upfront hardware investments

Pay only for the resources they use

Scale systems easily during peak demand or expansion

3. Faster Decision-Making on the Shop Floor 

When systems are connected, insights become actionable. Production managers can adjust schedules, maintenance teams can respond faster, and leadership gains clearer performance metrics.

Case Study: Electronics Manufacturing Plant 

A growing electronics manufacturer faced frequent downtime and inconsistent reporting across two facilities. Their on-premise systems couldn’t handle increased data volumes. After moving core manufacturing applications to a cloud-based platform, data became unified and accessible. By leveraging **cloud computing**, the company reduced downtime by 22% and improved production planning accuracy within the first year.

Stronger Security and Collaboration 

Cloud platforms invest heavily in cybersecurity, offering encrypted data, automated backups, and strict access controls. Teams across IT, engineering, and operations can collaborate using shared systems without compromising security.

Conclusion 

Manufacturers are under pressure to deliver quality, speed, and flexibility. By embracing cloud computing, manufacturing plants gain the agility and insight needed to stay competitive. In the evolving world of Manufacturing IT, the cloud is becoming a foundation for smarter, more resilient operations.
