About UYIC

UYTIC is in development, incubated by the Upper Yarra Local Development Strategy.

UYTIC is currently being led by Sam Rye.

What we envisage

UYTIC will become a regional innovation centre building and orchestrating the cross-sector partnerships, capital and capacity to drive social, economic and environmental transitions in the Upper Yarra and beyond.

Our Vision & Mission

An Upper Yarra with the permanent capacity to adapt, innovate, and thrive through whatever transitions lie ahead.

We will bridge the gap between policy and local action - orchestrating partnerships, growing community wealth, and powering place-based innovation for the Upper Yarra's most urgent challenges.
