This dataset is a summary of industry types, skilled employment, sales income, and number of employees collected from Kelvin Grove Urban Village (Brisbane), Macquarie Park Innovation District (Sydney), and Monash Technology Precinct (Melbourne), Australia. It was compiled from the data extracted from Dunn & Bradstreet directory, relevant business websites, Google Earth (2018 imagery date) and Google My Map (2021 Imagery date). The dataset is presented in excel spreadsheets (tables 1-4) which consist of separate data for multinational, large national , and small and medium enterprises operating at the study areas at the time of the data collection from February 2021 to April 2022.

The dataset is used in conjunction with other datasets in a pilot study which adopts a multidimensional innovation district performance framework to develop an innovation district typology matrix and evaluates its practicality with real innovation district data. The dataset contributes toward classification of Australia’s three eminent innovation districts ─Macquarie Park Innovation District, Monash technology Precinct and Kelvin Grove Urban Village based on their performance.
