Foreign Minister Julie Bishop has used a visit to the US to spruik Australian startups on the world stage and to encourage high-profile Americans to invest in Down Under innovation.<\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/p>\n

Speaking at the G\u2019Day USA event in New York, Bishop discussed the government\u2019s recent $1 billion innovation statement<\/a> and the country\u2019s transition away from the mining boom.<\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/p>\n

\u201cAustralia is continuing to embrace innovation at the heart of our economic policies as our economy transitions back from a focus on resource-based investment to a broader based and more diverse economy,\u201d Bishop said.<\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/p>\n

\u201cInnovation is the watchword.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/p>\n

During her visits to New York, Washington and Los Angeles Bishop is aiming to \u201cpromote Australia\u2019s high-growth economy and sophisticated innovative culture and the opportunities this offers to leaders in American politics, business and creative industries\u201d.<\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/p>\n

As Sky News <\/i>reports<\/a>, the audience included members of Fortune 500 company executives, US policy-makers, academics and economists, and Bishop encouraged them to investigate and investment in Australian entrepreneurs and startups.<\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/p>\n

\u201cWe are unleashing the full potential of our entrepreneurs and our high value-added creative industries onto the global market,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/p>\n

\u201cThere truly has never been a better time to be an innovative Australian business or to do business in Australia.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/p>\n

As part of the federal government\u2019s innovation statement, five \u201clanding pads\u201d will be created around the world<\/a> to assist startups in global expansion, including one in Silicon Valley.<\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/p>\n

The speech was organised by the American Australian Association, and Bishop is set to appear at other G\u2019Day USA events this week.<\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/p>\n

\u201cThis program is a celebration of the partnership between our countries and a showcase of the truly remarkable possibilities the partnership offers in the future,\u201d Bishop said.<\/p>\n
