A “BIG data” digital platform that provides access to information about South Australia’s resources sector has been recognised for its benefits to the state’s economy.

The SA Resources Information Gateway, developed by the Department of Premier and Cabinet, won the Public Sector Transformation award at last week’s Australian Information Industry Association iAwards in Adelaide.

Judging panel chair Don Easter said SARIG made 130 years of data accessible and usable to explorers, miners, government, businesses, indigenous communities, and the public.

SMSF Adviser, together with principal partner SuperConcepts, is pleased to announce the South Australian winners for the SMSF and Accounting Awards.

The SMSF and Accounting Awards is a new initiative which has been launched to recognise those SMSF and accounting professionals in their home state.

“We recognise that national awards programs aren’t always the right fit for professionals who are concentrated on their locale, and we are pleased that we can acknowledge their contribution to the industry,” said SMSF Adviser’s head of partnerships, Terry Braithwaite.

The South Australian winners were announced at a gala dinner in Adelaide last night. A full list of the winners can be accessed here.
