A south-east Queensland city is attracting next-gen tech businesses and innovative start-ups in a bid to give its residents local, high-value jobs as it styles itself in Silicon Valley in the US.
Midway between Brisbane and the Gold Coast, Logan has a population of 350,000 residents and is one of the fastest-growing cities in Australia.
By 2036, that population is predicted to exceed 500,000.
But for many who live in Logan, a daily commute north to Brisbane or south to the Gold Coast is the norm — something Logan City Council wants to change.
"It's so important for Logan to have start-ups operating in our city because the jobs of the future are going to be the jobs for young people," Deputy Mayor Jon Raven said.
"Start-ups often create high-value jobs. The great thing about a high-value job is it isn't just one job for one person.
"When you create a high-value job, you create five other traditional jobs around it, whether that's in hospitality, retail, or other services.
"When people get paid more, they expect to have more services near where they work, and that creates more employment for everyone."
