DIIRD Strategies
DIIRD and State Government Vision
The Department of Innovation, Industry and Regional Development (DIIRD) has a key role in achieving the Government's vision for Victoria, as outlined in the 2005 updated vision statement, Growing Victoria Together.
As part of the 10-year vision outlined in that statement, the department is working to create thriving innovative industries that provide more quality jobs, help implement sustainable business practices to protect the environment, build safe and caring communities, and nurture cohesive links between government and industry.
