Hello all

CAIA is pleased to be hosting a Seminar presented by David Fullagar of 
Netflix at Swinburne University on Wednesday next week. David has asked us 
not to record the seminar for later dissemination so as to allow him share 
more information than he otherwise might be limited to.

Attendance at the seminar is free and no RSVP is required. Details of the 
seminar can be found below. Parking is available at one of the many carparks 
in the Hawthorn shopping precinct near the University

projects.
