Wednesday 26 Nov – At the Tech Council of Australia, we believe that good policy starts with good data. That’s why we’ve created Tech VECTOR, a resource designed to make accurate data about Australia’s tech economy accessible to everyone – from policymakers to founders – and to help drive informed discussion about how we grow the sector. VECTOR stands for Value, Employment, Careers, Technology, Opportunity and Resilience – the core pillars of Australia’s tech economy that this tool helps visualise.
Use VECTOR to explore key insights across every corner of Australia’s tech economy – from how salaries and roles are evolving, to who’s leading in diversity, innovation and growth. Dive into data on salary distribution by career stage, top-paying employers and locations, women’s leadership and promotion rates and tech’s share of total employment. You’ll also find global comparisons on AI readiness, R&D investment and skills adoption – giving you a clear view of where Australia stands and where the opportunities lie.
Who it’s for:
- Industry leaders & employers – to explore salaries, workforce trends and diversity progress.
- Government & policymakers – to access timely, evidence-based insights that shape national capability and economic strategy.
- Researchers & analysts – to reference up-to-date datasets and international comparisons.
- Media & commentators – to source credible, easily visualised data for stories and analysis.
- Students & jobseekers – to understand tech career paths, growth areas and gender representation.
VECTOR will be regularly updated and is fully interactive, allowing users to filter, compare and visualise the data that matters most to them. Explore here: https://techcouncil.com.au/tech-vector/
