Ancestry.com.au – Solomon Family Reunion
It all began with one man - Samuel Moss Solomon. He was the father of Emmanuel and Vaiben Solomon, brothers who were transported to Australia after being charged with stealing some clothes. Fast forward 194 years and the Solomons have left a significant mark on this country. A classic story of a ‘convict made good’, Emmanuel Solomon was a member of parliament, a philanthropist and benefactor to the arts. His descendants have also had a strong impact on the history of Australia, with one nephew holding the record for the shortest stint (one week) as Premier of South Australia and then ...
Imagination for business – a thought leadership project for Canon Australia
Challenge: Howorth has been working with Canon’s corporate and business imaging communication teams since the end of 2010. In 2011, Canon asked Howorth to develop a campaign that would support one of their core company values – imagination at both the corporate and the business imaging divisional levels. Our work: It was clear this project would be more than a media relations campaign. The team at Howorth researched the concept of imagination and looked at existing data on imagination and productivity in the workplace. We found a team at UNSW that had proven a link between imagination and learning effectiveness in ...
Canon’s Extreme Imaging competition – putting imaging science on the news agenda
The challenge: Canon Inc operates five research and development facilities around the globe, one of which – CiSRA – is located in Australia at Canon’s North Ryde campus. CiSRA contributes imaginative technologies, intellectual property and customer insights to Canon – in fact many of the components found in Canon’s leading consumer and business technologies were created in the Australian facility. In addition, the profile of imaging science in Australia is quite low, despite the groundbreaking work being completed within Australian Universities. CiSRA enlisted Howorth to help communicate CiSRA’s role in the Australian science and technology landscape, promote the study of imaging science and improve ...
Telstra Productivity Indicator 2012
Providing strategic insight into Australia’s declining productivity With challenging economic times ahead, improving productivity is now more important than ever as Australian organisations focus on optimising their investments to stay one step ahead. This issue has been at the forefront of Telstra Enterprise and Government’s annual thought leadership campaign: the Telstra Productivity Indicator. Now in its fourth year, the 2012 Telstra Productivity Indicator surveyed over 700 senior decision makers from enterprise and government organisations across Australia, looking at their attitudes and behaviours towards productivity. The research this year found that productivity in Australia has continued to decline, following a ten year trend ...
Getty Images grab a snapshot of Aussie life
As one of the world’s leading creators and distributors of still imagery, video and multimedia products, Getty Images know what makes an iconic image. But what does an iconic Australian image look like? Is it the time honoured classics of the Sydney Opera House or Great Barrier Reef or perhaps it’s a backyard BBQ? Getty wanted to find out and issued a brief to photographers to submit their interpretations of everyday life in Australia in the second year of the Grab photography competition. [caption id="attachment_2001" align="aligncenter" width="150" caption="Grab runner–up – Mark Tipple"][/caption] The brief to photographers was ‘Captured Moments’ – entrants had ...
The four-man Aussie squad – Canon’s technicians battle it out for cup title
In October 2011 four technicians from Canon Australia and New Zealand flew to Shanghai to compete for the title of Canon’s undisputed top technician at the Asia Pacific (APAC) Cup. The APAC Cup is a Canon technician’s version of the football grand final, but instead of battling it out on the footy field, they’re troubleshooting business imaging equipment. It’s a highly skilled and very competitive series of practical and theoretical tests. It’s also a way for Canon to provide its technicians with opportunities to build their skills by sharing ‘tricks of the trade’ with colleagues from around the world. Howorth spotted ...
