You may not be familiar with the name, but you’ve likely seen photochromic lenses in action. 😎 These lenses change in tint when exposed to UV light – providing UV protection while avoiding the need to carry two pairs of glasses.    The downside? The tint transition can be slow – but one Tonsley Innovation District-based team have developed a solution.   ZEISS Group's PhotoFusion X is a new lens offering market-leading speeds for tint transition without risking clarity or UV protection. ☀️    Congratulations to the ZEISS PhotoFusion X Team for winning Innovator of the Year at the 2024 #SAScienceAwards.  Thank you to The University of Adelaide for their sponsorship of this award.

The Tonsley Innovation District was thrilled to once again support the Corporate Cup, brought to you by Squash SA. Held on their 24/7 courts at the district, the 7-10 week competition culminated in an exciting Grand Final on Wednesday last week. Players from various companies embraced the friendly rivalry, with some teams even organising their own weekly training sessions to sharpen their skills. The intense competition and camaraderie made for a truly memorable event, it was great to see so many turn up to the Grand Final even if they didn’t make the finals. “The Corporate cup brought team rivalry into our workplace, fighting fury against opposition companies, blood, sweat, tears, and unfulfilled dreams… and we loved it. Thanks Squash SA. We can’t wait to enlist next year for the Battle of the Trophy!” Phil Gore, AZZO A huge congratulations to the Sportal Team (Darias Rafizadeh, Kane Ellis, and Jack Van Deveren) for their impressive victory in the Grand Final. Their skill and sportsmanship were truly inspiring. We can't wait to see the next Corporate Cup heat up Tonsley!
