State of Play^TM began as a curiosity project in trying to understand how innovation works at a strategic level within the high-capital, but slow-moving, mining industry. Today, in addition to being an in-depth resource of industry workings, State of Play^TM is recognised as a valuable arena for leaders to engage in dialogue and collaborate. The result is a movement to evolve macro-level insights into plausible solutions that address challenges in the industry ecosystem. 

We aim to become a global hub of research and knowledge, continuing our work in effectively analysing the mining industry, but also expanding our reach across platforms and domains – in partnership with industries, academia and the government.
