Leading robotics innovator Omron Automation opens new regional HQ at Western Sydney University’s Engineering Innovation Hub We are absolutely thrilled that #OMRON has officially opened its new Oceania regional headquarters at Western Sydney University’s Engineering Innovation Hub in #Parramatta. This state-of-the-art precinct will serve as a base for the company’s operations in the region, fostering collaboration between industry and academia. Leveraging OMRON’s advanced technologies and solutions, the expansion is projected to contribute over $150 million to the local economy over the next five years. OMRON's Technology Demonstration and Proof of Concept Centre on ground floor, Engineering and Training Centre on the first floor, and a Business and R&D Centre on the seventh floor — containing the Oceania business operations headquarters, including its research and development initiatives – where it will partner with companies, customers and others on PhD candidates’ industrial projects. This cutting-edge facility, expected to attract up to 5,000 visitors annually, will provide local industries and businesses with access to leading technology and equipment, extensive global knowledge, and a robust pool of highly skilled engineering talent. Our strategic partnership with #OMRON will provide students with valuable opportunities, including internships for undergraduates, advanced research projects, guest lectures, workshops, and industry showcase events. These initiatives will significantly enhance our Work Integrated Learning program, offering STEM students hands-on experience and fostering direct connections with industry in innovation-driven fields.
