ADVISORY BOARD

STRATEGIC LEADERSHIP APPOINTMENT

The appointment of Richard Alcock AO as Chair of the BindiMaps Advisory Board reflects a deliberate and strategic selection process. Richard was chosen for his extensive leadership across public administration, health governance, and large-scale institutional management -qualities that align directly with BindiMaps' next phase of growth. His experience chairing major public hospitals in Sydney provides an authoritative understanding of the operational and accessibility challenges that healthcare facilities face daily. The Advisory Board operates as a strategic guidance body, informing BindiMaps' direction on market expansion, product development priorities, and key partnerships.

Richard's appointment signals a clear commitment to strengthening BindiMaps' position within the healthcare sector. As a registered software vendor for NSW Health, BindiMaps is already embedded in Australia's public health infrastructure, and Richard's leadership will help deepen those relationships and open pathways to new collaborations across health networks.
Planned milestones under Richard Alcock AO's chairmanship include expanding BindiMaps deployments across additional hospital campuses and health precincts throughout Australia. The Advisory Board will also guide initiatives aimed at improving patient navigation experiences through accessible audio wayfinding, real-time indoor positioning, and BindiView's visual route rehearsal capabilities.

Collaborative projects with healthcare facility managers and accessibility coordinators are already being scoped to address the specific wayfinding challenges patients, visitors, and staff encounter in complex hospital environments. These projects will leverage BindiMaps' infrastructure-free installation model - requiring no beacons, wiring, or building modifications - to enable rapid deployment. The Advisory Board's governance framework ensures that each initiative is measured against clear accessibility outcomes and patient experience benchmarks.
Richard's leadership will be instrumental in building the cross-sector relationships needed to realise BindiMaps' mission of transforming wayfinding and accessibility across Australia and beyond.
