SAN FRANCISCO — Last month, innovationXchange, the innovation lab of Australia’s Department of Foreign Affairs and Trade, released a new innovation strategy.
Sarah Pearson, who has taken the newly created role of chief innovation officer, is featured in the report, which explains that she will be “taking a leading role in embedding innovation at DFAT.”
According to the strategy, she is tasked with providing leadership, expertise, and external connections in the innovation sector, and leading and supporting innovation across Australia’s aid agency.
