The Northern Territory (NT) Government originally founded the Women’s Innovation Network NT (WINNT) in 2020, aligning with its commitment to developing the next generation of STEAMM (science, technology, engineering, arts, mathematics, and medicine) enabled entrepreneurial innovators in the Territory.

In 2024, Innovation Territory engaged ACTIO Group to manage and grow WINNT. With extensive experience in organisational and program design and delivery, ACTIO Group is dedicated to driving innovation and strategic growth in the Northern Territory.

The purpose of WINNT is to increase diversity and gender equity in innovation and STEAMM through the retention, attraction, and elevation of women.

The network is working towards the following outcomes:

  • representation of women in innovation and STEAMM in the Territory is strengthened

  • a pipeline of opportunities and pathways to encourage and attract girls and young women into innovation where STEAMM is embedded

  • women are empowered to engage with the Territory’s innovation ecosystem and pursue entrepreneurial opportunities

  • availability and visibility of support and development opportunities are increased.

To connect with WINNT, please reach out to ACTIO Group directly. The innovation team will support ACTIO Group during the transition period.
