Griffith Logo 160
Griffith University is pleased to be the Principal Partner of the Ideas Festival.

A multi-campus, learning-centred university, Griffith is acknowledged as an outstanding academy that combines the best traditions and values with the innovation necessary for success.

Griffith University Vice Chancellor Professor Ian O'Connor says the connection between the Ideas Festival and Griffith is built on a strong joint commitment to supporting and celebrating innovation.

"The Ideas Festival promotes Queensland, locally, nationally and internationally as being future driven, innovative, diverse and forward thinking. Griffith University sees the Festival as a wonderful opportunity to showcase Queensland's world-class thinkers and researchers and at the same time revel in the alchemy created when ideas from around the world swirl together over the five days of the Festival," he said.

"Our university provides opportunity for ideas to collide, and importantly nurtures the new ways of thinking that can emerge from the impact, so we are delighted to be supporting the Festival."

Griffith University was established in 1971 and continues to enjoy an international reputation for excellence in teaching and research.
