Research Commercialisation Principles • There is no ‘one-size-fits-all’ approach • The fundamental mechanism is person interaction • Two-way exchange between commerce and academia • Business operations outside the University environment by people with experience
Research Commercialisation Network Scientific & Commercial Publications Academic Research Joint Commercial Research Business Development Prospecting Conferences, Seminars, Workshops High Growth Business Assistance
