The INCITE Awards Committee congratulates the WA finalists who are our finalists for the 2020 iAwards.
WAITTA and the INCITE Awards have been working with the Australian Information Industry Association (AIIA) for more than 27 years. The INCITE Awards provides the pathway for WA local innovators to enter the iAwards and have their technology showcases on the national level.
The iAwards recognises and rewards excellence in Australian innovation that is making a difference and has the potential to create positive change for the community – whether this is at home, in the office or on a global scale.

- Como Secondary College for FoodUnity: We are adressing the problem of food insecurity in Australia, and how it has grown into such a big problem especially during the COVID-19 pandemic. Our app allows people to donate conveniently to people that are in need of food, and this is very impactful to the people that are getting the food received because it helps them have a secure way of actually getting food that they need for dinner. There are many people in Australia that find it hard to have a decent meal because of a low-paying job, or that they are unemployed or all the money goes towards things like; their children and their bills. So it makes it very difficult to purchase food, however through our app, people are able to directly help each other through donating items. People that are in need will be able to simply go to the store, pick off the items of the shelf, and provide verification through our app to the store that they have been donated those items.
