A WORLD of digital technology and innovation will be unveiled in Mildura next week as part of a statewide festival that drives industry, entrepreneurs and students to "not only be different, but make a difference".

Hosted by Mildura Regional Development (MRD) and ANZ, the fourth annual Digital Innovation Festival hits Sunraysia on Tuesday and features two key events -- a virtual reality masterclass and lunch with disruptor and behavioural change agent Dominic Thurbon.
