We are invested in the new economy. During 2018–2019, the Department of State Development, Manufacturing, Infrastructure and Planning continued to support our state’s diverse regional economic environment. Our achievements are set out in this annual report. They include our track record in leading economic strategy, developing and assisting industries, enabling projects and planning our local communities. As at 30 June 2019, our project pipeline was carrying $11 billion of coordinated projects with the potential to create 25,700 Queensland jobs. This includes seven new projects added during the year, worth $4.4 billion. We also provided funding for important infrastructure and industry initiatives throughout Queensland; approved new State Development Areas to facilitate economic growth and declared Priority Development Areas for new and better-connected local communities. Image: Director-General Our enduring priority is to attract and support exciting new Queensland business Rachel Hunter ventures and industries. Our 10-year roadmaps, action plans and strategies continue to lay the pathways for long-term business and investment growth. We continue to assist emerging and priority industry sectors such as Advanced manufacturing, Biofutures, Biomedical, Defence, Aerospace and Mining Equipment, Technology and Services (METS). Our achievements are especially pleasing given that 2018–2019 was our first full financial year as a new department. Achievements during the 12 months include developing our operating model and supporting an organisational restructure, integrating departmental groups, and setting our new strategic direction. I would like to acknowledge and thank departmental staff for their dedicated work. Their passion and innovation have been the driving force to deliver on our department’s promise to be Invested in Queensland. As the lead economic delivery agency for the state, our vision for a thriving and inclusive economy is our commitment to Queenslanders.
