While the biotechnology revolution will pose many challenges,
both practical and ethical,
to all
nations, Australia has the opportunity not only to rise to these
challenges, but also to prosper
from them. With some vision from Government, providing a suitable
policy environment, and
from business, in grasping the opportunity, Australia may be at
the centre of "Genome Valley",
the 21st century equivalent of today's icon of successful
technological development, Silicon
Valley.
