About Horticulture – the Next Generation

 

Horticulture – the Next Generation” grew out of an industry wide leadership program funded by Horticulture Australia Limited in 2021, 2013 and 2014.

About Horticulture - the Next Generation

Horticulture – the Next Generation was funded in 2012, 2013 and 2014 by Horticulture Australia Limited (now Horticulture Innovation Australia). The program was delivered by Russell Cummings (then with Strategic Business Development) and by Mindshop International.

The innovative program used a combination of traditional, web and social media technologies to extend the reach of the program beyond a core group of individual leaders to the wider horticultural industry.

We started the Horticulture-Next Generation program in 2012 and its funding wound up in 2014. Over that period of 3 years, we had 95 horticulture managers and owners attend 4 days of intensive training, over 220 people completed online training modules and we had an additional 2,300 attendees on our webinar program.

This innovative program used a combination of traditional face-to-face, web and social media technologies to extend the reach of the program beyond a core group of individual leaders to the wider horticultural industry.

We continue to work closely with horticulture businesses and industry groups to improve management, individual and business outcomes.
