He is the co-founder (with Robyn Taylor) of Internode Pty Ltd, an Australian national broadband services company. He is a 1986 graduate of the University of Adelaide, holding a bachelor's degree in Applied Mathematics and Computer Science. Together with John Romkey, Hackett became the first to connect a commercial domestic appliance (a Sunbeam Deluxe Automatic Radiant Control Toaster) to the internet in 1990.[1] Internode Pty Ltd was founded in May 1991. In 1997 Hackett founded a subsidiary called Agile Communications that was a licensed national telecommunications carrier and was the first South Australian based company to gain this license.[2][3]The Internode company group was sold to iiNet Limited (ASX:IIN) in a AUS$105m transaction announced in December 2011 and completed on 31 January 2012.[4] Hackett departed the executive team at Internode to join the board of iiNet in August 2012.[5] On 12 November 2013 it was announced that he had been appointed to the board of the National Broadband Network, and that he had resigned his position with iiNet.[6] He departed the board of the National Broadband Network in April 2016 and was replaced by Michael Malone.[7] Other boards Hackett has served upon are: Adelaide Fringe Festival, m.Net Corporation.,[8] and the Australian Network for Art and Technology.[9] Hackett co-founded and is a former director of The Internet Society of Australia,[10] and was the founding president of the South Australian Internet Association (which has since been disbanded).[8] He is a Fellow of the Australian Computer Society.[11] While he was Managing Director of Internode, he was frequently active in the Internode forum on Whirlpool,[12] and is a vocal commentator on Australian telecommunications competition issues and Government policies.[13] Hackett is the largest investor in ASX-listed company Redflow Limited, has served on its board (including as Chairman) and also spent a period as the company CEO before hiring others into both of those roles.[14] Hackett stepped down from the Redflow board effective at the 2018 AGM, while remaining involved in a technical role as Systems Integration Architect.[15] Hackett is an advocate for electric vehicles. He imported the first Tesla Roadster into Australia and documented the process of driving it 501 km on a single charge during the Global Green Challenge in Australia in 2009.[16] This was reported to be a new world range record for a production electric car at the time.[17] He subsequently appeared in testimonial for Tesla.[18] References1. ^{{cite web |url=http://www.livinginternet.com/i/ia_myths_toast.htm |publisher=Living Internet |accessdate=2006-07-17 |title=The Internet Toaster}} 2. ^http://www.agile.com.au/ 3. ^http://www.acma.gov.au/webwr/_assets/main/lib310081/internode-agile%20response%20to%20was%20ii.pdf 4. ^{{cite press release |url=https://www.iinet.net.au/about/mediacentre/releases/20111222-iinet-to-acquire-internode|title=iiNet to acquire Internode}} 5. ^{{cite press release |url=http://investor.iinet.net.au/IRM/Company/ShowPage.aspx/PDFs/1631-74956211/DirectorAppointment |title=Director Appointment}} 6. ^{{cite press release |url=http://www.malcolmturnbull.com.au/media/new-appointments-to-nbn-co-board-bring-extensive-industry-experience-to-pro |title=Director Appointment}} 7. ^{{cite press release |url=http://www.nbnco.com.au/corporate-information/media-centre/media-releases/Michael-Malone-appointed-to-nbn-Board.html|title=Michael Malone appointed to nbn Board}} 8. ^1 {{cite press release |url=http://www.impress.com.au/2003/internode_2003.asp#mnet |title=South Aussie Leader of the Pack |date=2003-12-10 |accessdate=2006-07-17 |publisher=Impress Media}} 9. ^{{cite web |url=http://www.anat.org.au/about/board/ |title=Board |publisher=Australian Network for Art and Technology |accessdate=2009-07-06}} 10. ^{{cite web |url=http://www.isoc-au.org.au/Organisation/PastDirs.html |title=Past Directors of ISOC-AU |accessdate=2006-07-17}} 11. ^{{cite press release |url=http://www.acs.org.au/nsw/index.cfm?action=notice&temID=noticedetails¬ID=391 |title=ACS Council Elects New Board Directors and Fellows |date=2005-08-05 |accessdate=2006-07-17 |publisher=Australian Computer Society}} 12. ^Hackett's Whirlpool profile 13. ^http://www.crn.com.au/News/151372,new-home-buyers-fight-telstra-lock-in.aspx 14. ^{{cite web |url=https://redflow.com/reports/redflow-limited-agm-2017-commentary-simon-hackett// |title=AGM 2017 Commentary Simon Hackett}} 15. ^{{cite press release |url=https://redflow.com/redflow-continues-board-renewal-2/ |title=Redflow Continues Board Renewal}} 16. ^{{cite web |url=https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Eaxl7i2wn-Y&t=87s |publisher=SimonHackett |accessdate=2018-11-11 |title=World Record Distance (501km) drive in a Production Electric Vehicle (Tesla Roadster)}} 17. ^{{cite web |url=https://www.wired.com/2009/10/tesla-313-miles/ |title=TESLA GOES 313 MILES ON SINGLE CHARGE |date=2009-10-27}} 18. ^{{cite web |url=https://www.tesla.com/en_AU/customer-stories/future-driven |title=Future Driven |publisher=Tesla |accessdate=2018-11-11}} External links
