Geelong is unique. Where Geelong goes, so goes our State.’ Hon Daniel Andrews, Premier of Victoria, 16 February 2016, Transforming Geelong Investor Briefing. Page 3 of 45 1 The Team The Leaders Transforming Geelong Group is made up of emerging leaders from a range of different workplaces, backgrounds and experience: Adam Cunningham - Project Manager - Head Office Redevelopment, Barwon Water Amy Gillett - Community Manager, GMHBA Ben Broadhead - Special Counsel, Harwood Andrews Helen Butteriss - Principal - Business Advisory, Crowe Horwath Martha O’Sullivan - IT Delivery Manager - Trading and Supply Chain, Target The group came together because of a shared passion for promoting the positive attributes that Geelong has to offer and a desire to share all that is great about Geelong and the surrounding region. Page 4 of 45 2 Acknowledgements Leaders Transforming Geelong acknowledges the support, passion and drive provided by the Committee for Geelong (CfG), in particular the leadership demonstrated by CfG CEO Rebecca Casson. We also acknowledge the support provided by the CfG team including Rosemary White, Eleanor Green and Simone McKenzie. We specifically acknowledge our communications partners StratHouse, Asher Consultants and McCo. These partners were responsible for delivering all of the media and communications associated with the Transforming Geelong Roadshow. We specifically thank our Transforming Geelong Roadshow partners (City of Greater Geelong, Committee for Geelong, Victorian State Government, Viva Energy Australia, Geelong Port and the Victorian Regional Channels Authority) who have wholeheartedly supported the initiative together with our Briefing and Online Partners (see partner list at http://www.transforminggeelong.com.au/partners). To have the support and collaboration of over 50 Geelong region organisations is a testament to the belief that Geelong is a great city. A special thank you also to Tourism Greater Geelong and the Bellarine as well as the Geelong Football Club. Without their support and contributions we would not have been able to deliver such a wonderful project. Our workplaces have been very important in making the Transforming Geelong Roadshow so successful. They have believed in us to take on the Leaders for Geelong program and have provided the flexibility required to get the project off the ground and deliver a meaningful event. Finally, the Transforming Geelong Roadshow would not have been possible without the support of our families and friends who allowed us the opportunity to take on this ambitious project resulting in many days, nights and weekends of work. Page 5 of 45 3 Overview The Transforming Geelong Roadshow sought to educate and inform audiences about the abundant opportunities available to invest, work, live and play in Geelong. The Transforming Geelong document launched in February 2015 highlighted that Geelong is successfully positioned as a city of vibrant activity and great interest to investors. The Transforming Geelong document has been a very useful tool for influencing political and business discussions and has been consistently referenced in the media. The document also highlighted that there was an opportunity to further educate media and industry about Geelong’s transformation. Whilst there is a lot of growth and opportunity in Geelong it was apparent that Melbourne media has a tendency to foster a negative perception of Geelong and those negative messages undermine investor confidence. The time had come to promote the positive stories in an effort to block out the negative noise. The Transforming Geelong Roadshow was a series of events held in December 2015 and February 2016 to educate Melbourne media and industry about the opportunities in the Geelong region. It also included a revamp of the 2015 Transforming Geelong document. The Transforming Geelong Roadshow focus was to build on the city’s economic transformation in key strategic sectors by increasing investment in the region from Melbourne-based businesses and organisations. At the heart of the Transforming Geelong Roadshow was the drive to encourage people to see Geelong through new eyes. Page 6 of 45 4 Objectives The key objectives of the Transforming Geelong Roadshow were: To raise awareness of investment opportunities in Geelong to targeted audiences from December 2015 through 2016 To build on the city’s economic transformation in key strategic sectors by increasing investment in the region from Melbourne-based businesses and organisations Create opportunities for Geelong organisations to collaborate and be a single voice for their specific industry sector from December 2015 through 2016 Provide an interesting and engaging experience of Geelong that highlights the lifestyle and exciting commercial and cultural developments taking place in Geelong for potential investors, visitors, workers and residents Deputy Mayor Cr Bruce Harwood, Premier of Victoria The Hon. Daniel Andrews and Committee for Geelong CEO Rebecca Casson. Page 7 of 45 5 Elements of the project 5.1 “Fed Cats” Dinner, Canberra Fed Cats is an annual dinner held at Parliament House in Canberra hosted by federal members of parliament from the Geelong region and the Geelong Football Club.

  • Unity in Diversity
    unity in diversity Annual Report 2014 Diversitat Refugee Photography Project This exhibition celebrated six remarkable individuals from refugee backgrounds that contribute greatly to the Geelong community through their work with Diversitat. They were from Sudanese, Iraqi, Karen(pictured), Ethiopian, Afghani(pictured) and Bosnian backgrounds and reflect the diversity of Geelong’s newly arrived and more established migrant communities. Their contributions to the organisation are highly valued as bi-lingual support workers, case managers, volunteers and as workers with Diversitat’s Property Services Social Enterprises. The skills, dedication and empathy they bring to their roles greatly assists the settlement process of individuals from Geelong’s newly arrived communities and provides the support they need to reach their full potential. These images were taken by internationally awarded photographer, Tobias Titz, as part of a project for 2014 World Refugee Day that aspired to share stories that are rarely told by mainstream media about the experiences of refugees. Tobias Titz is a freelance photographer based in Melbourne, Australia. Over the last ten years he has worked for a range of local and international magazines and commercial clients.

  • The Mohawk Mayor
    Casson GAS, GRASS OR ASS, NO ONE RIDES FOR FREE: THE MOHAWK MAYOR REBECCA CASSON ABSTRACT In November 2013 Darryn Lyons, a former celebrity photographer well- known for his colourful antics, was directly elected as mayor of Geelong, the second largest city in the State of Victoria, Australia. Also known as “Mr Paparazzi” and “The Mohawk Mayor”, Lyons’s leadership lasted just 30 months before the Victorian State Government sacked him and dissolved the entire Geelong Council, revealing a pre-existing culture of bullying that appeared to be compounded by Lyons’s celebrity persona. How did Lyons’s persona affect Geelong’s newly established procedures for a directly elected mayor? Drawing on one particularly controversial incident, and using data collected from Lyons’s autobiography, together with media articles, official documents and social media, this article discusses how - as a celebrity politician - Lyons appeared to be unable to effectively separate his celebrity persona from his public persona. This seemed to drown out Geelong’s important issues, and undermined the legitimacy of local government. The current literature on directly elected mayors does not include consideration of how electing a celebrity as mayor complicates the problems of legitimacy in local government, and there is a paucity of literature on directly elected celebrity mayors in Australia. An emerging literature on directly elected mayors primarily addresses problems with legitimacy in contemporary politics, while the literature on how celebrity politics is changing legitimacy has been well established. Using the Lyons case, this article examines both literatures and contributes to the national and international debate on directly elected celebrity mayors.

AMPS PROCEEDINGS SERIES 6. ISSN 2398-9467 2 AMPS CONFERENCE 6 CONFERENCE: DIGITAL-CULTURAL ECOLOGY AND THE MEDIUM-SIZED CITY AMPS; Architecture_MPS; UWE; CMIR Bristol: 01—03 April, 2016 Digital Cultural Ecology and the Medium Sized City INTRODUCTION This publication is the product of the conference Digital Cultural Ecology and the Medium Sized City held in Bristol in 2016. Led by the Professor Terry Flaxton at the Centre for Moving Image Research, AMPS and its scholarly journal Architecture_MPS, this publication and the conference which it documents are interested in the exploring the still latent possibilities of the internet in urban, social and cultural contexts; the development of citizen led ‘hybrid cities’ in which new technologies foster new behaviours; new ethnographic interpretations of the city and its peoples; and changing representations of the city in new and old formats: photography, film, animation, augmented and virtual realities. The publication and conference were premised on the argument that, in every country in the world, medium-sized cities outnumber capital cities in both quantity and gross population. They are however, historically overlooked. In the city in which this conference was held, Bristol, UK, the industry sector that underwrites its culture and economy is that of the moving image and the digital. It is a medium sized city with a history and an active present at the intersection of the physical conurbation, moving image research, and the cultural, economic and social implications of their coalescence.

  • Welcome to the Elephant and Castle Hotel. Purchased by Darryn Lyons
    Welcome to the Elephant and Castle Hotel. Purchased by Darryn Lyons on the 17th of January 2012, The Elephant and castle has fast become one of Geelong’s major attractions due to its fine refurbishment and Australia’s most prized photographic collection ‘Images Of Our Time’, which is to be Housed permanently in Geelong at the Elephant and Castle Hotel. The collection will also travel around Australia and the South Pacific in the summer of 2013. We hope you enjoy your experience of fine food, wine and atmosphere at the Elephant and Castle Hotel, please take your time to look around Darryn’s private collection. Born in Geelong, Victoria on 19 August 1965, Lyons graduated from Geelong East Technical School, then began work as a professional photographer at the Geelong News and Geelong Advertiser. At the age of 22, he moved to London, where he gained a job at News of the World after a chance meeting with Rupert Murdoch. Two years later, he left to take a position with the Daily Mail, for whom he provided coverage of the Bosnian War, just one of the world renowned moments he captured on his camera. Darryn Lyons is the self-made man behind the cult of celebrity photography. In his fascinating expose of life behind the lens, he speaks of his outrageous and dangerous exploits as a newspaper photographer and paparazzo for some momentous events around the globe in his autobiography ‘MR PAPARAZZI’ available behind the bar for purchase. His is a story of hard graft, hard tactics and hard choices in a notorious profession.
