The broadbandopportunity

Engaged Government has asked the

ICT industry to show leadership in

promoting broadband demand and

experience in collaboration with NGOs.

There is a focus on improving

New Zealands productivity with ICT.

Broadband, geo-spatial and data centres are the critical infrastructure for a

21st century digital economy.

Enables intelligent communities, integrating business, utilities, council and

community services on common platforms.

Digital literacy is the key to realising the potential for New Zealand.

Broadband Usage

and Innovation Centre (BUIC)

Concept: The Broadband Usage and Innovation Centre (BUIC) is proposed as a new facility linking NZ

universities and Crown Research Institutes to public and private sector stakeholders with a need

for coordinated research into the benefits of Ultra Fast Broadband .

It would aim to develop collaborative research initiatives and projects across multiple disciplinesto leverage the investment in NZs new Ultra Fast Broadband (UFB) and Rural Broadband (RBI)

infrastructure.

Vision: To maximise the benefits to all New Zealanders of UFB infrastructure, through multi-disciplinary

research into innovative uses and applications.

Mission: To coordinate, develop and promote applied research into innovations which may be enabled by

the UFB and Rural Broadband initiatives, for the benefit of all New Zealanders. Projects may

include health, education, commerce, entertainment, utilities management, e-Government etc.

Critical Success Factors for BUIC

National focus UFB/RBI are national initiatives which would be unlikely to achieve the best

research and usage outcomes if BUIC involved just one university.

Multi-disciplinary UFB infrastructure may act to enable a range of new solutions, products,

business process, means of service delivery etc. A focus within a single discipline would tend to

exclude others.

Collaborative Recognising UFB will enable new solutions and opportunities across a range of

areas, BUIC should aim to collaborate across these different fields to encourage innovation while

harnessing the considerable existing expertise

Clearing-house BUIC should be created to coordinate, rather than own, individual projects and

initiatives. Participating universities should own and derive full benefit from individual projects.

Overall Funding Increase BUIC should harness existing ad-hoc, point in time research in theprivate sector to deliver a comprehensive, co-ordinated view of the possibilities of UFB/RBI,

which is the greater than the sum of its parts.

Key Roles

o BUIC acts as clearinghouse for proposed research & development projects, linking research capacity and skills

in the university system with private sector partners and others (e.g. NGOs, Govt).

o Participating universities research expertise, local knowledge, deep technical skills, and potential for research

participation by student communities.

o Participating Crown Research Institutes - deep sectoral research expertise and technical skills

o NZ Universities Research Committee - provides advice to Universities NZ on instigation of the BUIC.

o Private sector industry expertise, funding and research ideas.o UCONZ (University Commercialisation Offices) bring together the commercialisation offices of universities.

Successful BUIC projects would flow to UCONZ for commercialisation.

o NZ ICT peak body for ICT sector in New Zealand. Most companies which would participate in BUIC projects are

members.

o CFH (Crown Fibre Holdings) as Governments agent for implementation of the UFB initiative, facilitates

instigation of the BUIC.

o Ministry for Science & Innovation (MSI) lead agency driving the science and innovation sector in New Zealand

and peak provider of Government science funding.

o REANNZ telecommunications backbone for universities (KAREN), and also has expertise in demand

aggregation and research.

o Local Fibre Companies can provide prioritised infrastructure and support public trials etc.

Square Kilometre Array

The Square Kilometre Array (SKA) will be the largest

international astronomical facility of the 21st century.

If built in New Zealand and Australia, it will be the

largest single endeavour in our scientific history.

Every year the world currently produces

1,000,000,000,000,000,000 bytes of information.

The SKA will produce this data volume in one day.

HOW?HOW?

The Computer Clubhouse provides a creative and safe after-school learning

environment where young people from under-served communities work with

adult mentors to explore their own ideas, develop skills, and build confidence in

themselves through the use of technology and access to broadband.
