Juliana ADDISON (Wendouree) (10:04): Congratulations to Elizabeth Lewis-Gray, who has been honoured at the Victorian Manufacturing Hall of Fame Awards for services to industry for her work as co-founder and chair of Gekko Systems, a global technology leader in mineral processing based in Ballarat.

Elizabeth is the chair of Gekko Medical, who designed, developed and manufactured a fit-for-purpose ventilator in 2020 at the height of the COVID-19 pandemic. Elizabeth’s induction into the Victorian manufacturing honour roll is well-deserved recognition for her outstanding contribution to the manufacturing industry.
