Government of Western Australia, Case Study

The WA Impact Delegation Didn’t Just Tour Tech. They Brought Morris to Translate It.

When the Government of Western Australia led a high-level delegation of senior leaders and changemakers to Israel and Silicon Valley, they didn’t just want a tour of startup showrooms. They brought Morris in as a business futurist and integration lead—to ensure the tech they encountered was understood, contextualised, and actionable back home.

Across visits with Microsoft ScaleUp, TAU Ventures, Magma Venture Partners, Razor Labs, and dozens of Israel’s top AI, defence, agtech, and deeptech accelerators, Morris provided daily foresight briefings to connect what delegates saw with how their organisations could actually use it. He reframed hype into strategy, buzz into context, and helped the group process each encounter through the lens of business readiness and long-term relevance.

Shift: From inspirational field trip to real-world tech interpretation and public–private decision support.

The result?: Delegates left with more than business cards and photos—they left with foresight frameworks, grounded insight, and the tools to embed global innovation thinking into WA’s next decade of decisions.
