How to get involved

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.

When approaching universities for collaboration discussions, businesses are encouraged to identify problems they face where there is an opportunity for AEA investment to deliver a solution and a pathway to real-world impact.​

If you’re a potential partner, an AEA Priority Manager can discuss your needs and answer your questions.

Intellectual property access and commercial terms are negotiated directly between the university and its partners.
