[Music plays and images flash through of an eye and then what the eye looks like right down inside]

Narrator: A catalyst, it creates a reaction.

[Images flash through of swirling clouds, an explosion, an eye under a microscope and a light globe]

It creates change faster.

[Images flash through of a digital map of the globe and the globe morphs into the CSIRO logo]

CSIRO is Australia’s innovation catalyst.

[Images flash through of a researcher looking through a microscope, the inside of a piece of equipment, people in offices, a female looking up and a rocket blasting off]

We bring Australia’s innovation ecosystem together to transform Australia’s big challenges into global opportunities.

[Images flash through of the globe with interconnecting lines across it, a piece of equipment, a wind farm, a human skull diagram with a yellow eye socket, and interconnecting lines on a map]

We collaborate with our partners across industry, government, research and community to make it all happen.

[Images flash through of a researcher looking at a microscope slide, a piece of equipment and a researcher looking through a type of goggles]

We seek and seize what’s next on the horizon.

[Images changes to show an aerial view of land and then the image changes to show a male operating a drone over a field]

We create solutions through science.

[Image changes to show a hexapod moving across the ground and then the image changes to show an aerial view looking down on a multi solar panel site and the camera pans around the site]

CSIRO is Australia’s national science agency.

[Images move through of a profile view and then facing view of a male moving along and then the male looking at data on a very large screen and then the image changes to show a wind farm]

We wake up each morning because we’re making tomorrow and the future better, better for people, for business and for the planet.

[Images move through to show an aerial view of two cars moving through a satellite dish array, one of the satellite dishes rotating around, a crater type mountain and a formula being written on a window]

We believe change is good but transformation is better and innovation is where it starts.

[Images flash through of pinpoints of light which morph into many science description words and then morph into a network of lines encasing a sphere, then into an eye, and then into the CSIRO logo]

The CSIRO, Australia’s innovation catalyst, your innovation catalyst.

[Music plays and the image changes to show the CSIRO logo in the foreground of a night sky]
