OUR MISSION & PURPOSE
WAITTA is dedicated to empowering Western Australia's technology sector to lead in innovation, STEM, connectivity, and digital transformation.
Through strategic collaboration and cutting-edge technology, we envision a future where Western Australia becomes a global hub for technical excellence, driving economic prosperity, sustainability, and societal well-being for all.
To support this vision, WAITTA runs two prestigious award programs:
In addition to celebrating excellence, WAITTA hosts an annual fundraiser program - putt4dough - providing the technology sector with an opportunity to give back to the community. Learn more below.
Since 1991, the INCITE Awards have recognised technology innovation and excellence in Western Australia.
As the state's longest running technology awards, INCITE showcases and supports the technology sector by providing a pathway to
the national iAwards and international Asia-Pacific ICT Alliance Awards (APICTA).
The inaugural Game Changer Awards were held in 2017 and is an opportunity for children in Year 3 to Year 10, to showcase their innovative solutions to the world's challenges, using project-based learning, STEM skills, project-based learning, organisation, teamwork and presentation skills.
The Game Changer Awards is an opportunity to showcase WA STEM and the innovation shown by the next generations.
For more than 15 years, WAITTA has joined forces with the State's IT industry to raise much needed funds to give back to community. Since 2020, our fundraising efforts have supported Perth Children’s Hospital Foundation to ensure our sick kids and young people continue to receive world class paediatric care.
This event promotes good business amongst the sector and provides an important opportunity for industry professionals to network, raise
vital funds and importantly, to have lots of fun throughout the day.
