FUTUREWORLD will have two of the South Coast's greatest innovators at its gala dinner on May 22 in the Bert Lillye Room at Kembla Grange Racecourse.

Dr Tom Dennis, of Oceanlinx Wave to Energy and Dr Robert Dane, of the Solar Sailor Ferry will both attend the event.

Futureworld president Dr Judy Messer said both were attracting international attention for innovations inspired by nature and which were on display in prototype form at Futureworld.

The Kiama Blowhole had inspired Dr Dennis' creative thinking and Dr Dane had been intrigued by a dragonfly at Ulladulla.
