History
Canberra Technology Park is the result of entrepreneur John De Margheriti’s vision to establish a home for Canberra Information Communication Technology (ICT) companies. The park was established in 2001, through collaboration with The Academy of Interactive Entertainment (AIE), Canberra Institute of Technology (CIT) and the Australian Capital Territory Government to encourage the grouping of ICT businesses. In particular those related to 3d computer animation, multimedia, programming, on-line training and applications and software development, so that tenants could interact and benefit from this co-location.

Famous quotes containing the word history:
“To summarize the contentions of this paper then. Firstly, the phrase ‘the meaning of a word’ is a spurious phrase. Secondly and consequently, a re-examination is needed of phrases like the two which I discuss, ‘being a part of the meaning of’ and ‘having the same meaning.’ On these matters, dogmatists require prodding: although history indeed suggests that it may sometimes be better to let sleeping dogmatists lie.”
—J.L. (John Langshaw)
“The awareness that health is dependent upon habits that we control makes us the first generation in history that to a large extent determines its own destiny.”
—Jimmy Carter (James Earl Carter, Jr.)
“Certainly there is not the fight recorded in Concord history, at least, if in the history of America, that will bear a moment’s comparison with this, whether for the numbers engaged in it, or for the patriotism and heroism displayed.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
