We’re looking for Australian researchers and industry partners who want to chart a new course for commercialising research. We’re excited to hear about your ideas and to work with you to turn them into reality.

AEA encourages universities to take the lead in engaging with industry and investor partners. The program also invites industry and investors to reach out to universities about potential commercialisation projects.
