RDA Brisbane is part of a national network of 55 committees established by the Australian Government under the Regional Development Australia (RDA) initiative.
RDAs bring together all levels of government, business and the community to identify opportunities, challenges and priorities for action in their regions. They are local people developing local solutions to local issues.
RDA Brisbane is the organiser and host of the CLICK! Digital Expo, an event which aims to help businesses and not-for-profit organisations realise the power and potential of the digital economy.
The next expo will be held on Thursday 13 and Friday 14 March 2014 at Brisbane City Hall; if you are interested in being a sponsor and/or exhibitor you can lodge an expression of interest on the CLICK! website.

Digital Brisbane strategy a call to action for Brisbane enterprises
Lord Mayor Graham Quirk has urged Brisbane businesses to move 'boldly and rapidly' into the digital age, and help reinvigorate the city's economic fundamentals. The Lord Mayor made the comments at the launch of the Digital Brisbane strategy on March 22, an event held in partnership with RDA Brisbane and the Brisbane Airport Corporation, and attended by 300 local business leaders.
Councillor Quirk said the strategy is a 'call to action' for Brisbane enterprises and provides practical ideas and initiatives to help the city 'ride the digital wave'. He said that while the Council, Brisbane Marketing and partners including RDA Brisbane would drive and facilitate the strategy, the true success would come through businesses and organisations putting the necessary focus on improving their digital capacity.
