The Missing Bridge Builders
Australian innovation policy designs bridges between research institutions and end-user companies, bypassing the bridge builders; Australian technology companies with proven capabilities to carry innovation to global markets.
Different Skills, Different Jobs
Australia has world-class research and commercial companies. The challenge isn’t capability, it is competency. Policy settings place commercialisation responsibility on research organisations, bypassing Australian companies who actually know how.
International Commercialisation Lessons
The UK spent £2.5 billion on academic-led commercialisation. Result: 40% industry revenue vs Fraunhofer’s 70%, poor exports, minimal company creation. Commercial problems need commercial solutions.

Our Vision for the Future
Delivery of innovation via local technology companies will capitalise on the sustained investment into Australia’s research and innovation ecosystem; generating a return on investment for the benefit of our national economy. The translation of innovation via suppliers of products and services will accelerate local commercialisation, improve the visibility of innovation and technology delivery to market, increase market access to new technology, enhance local skills, enable cross industry collaboration and attract greater industry investment for future innovation.
