We have a huge education industry. I'm sure most of the folks in here already know this but education is our largest service export industry to the tune of about 21 billion dollars a year. At any one time, there are about 500,000-600,000 international students in the country. There are big dollars there - it's our biggest export (beyond the stuff that we rip out of the ground). It's an amazing platform we have. We have 43 high quality, well-established universities in Australia, a relatively good school system and we have some fantastic foundations for the country to make the most of what's happening in disrupting this space."Join UsDid you enjoy the conversation?
