Commercialising university research is a complex challenge
Effective approaches must consider a wide range of factors including culture, funding, skills, capacity and strategic alignment.
IN SUMMARY
There’s a failure in the front end of the university commercialisation system
With increased financial pressure, it’s critical there is a strong ROI for any activity. Our approach fuels activity linked to increasing the number of spinouts and licensing deals as well as income from consultancy, CPD and grant funding.
Leads to improved performance against commercialisation KPIs
OUR APPROACH
Considers the unique characteristics of the Institution
Every university is unique, with its own culture, experience, funding levels and commercialisation ecosystem. This means the approach must be designed for the unique situation.
OUR APPROACH
Helps guide how to invest limited resources for greatest impact
Who to support? Which projects to support? What type of support? When should it be provided? The answers to these questions will directly impact the return on investment.
OUR APPROACH
Embeds a sustainable system that supports a culture of commercialisation
It’s important to achieve successful commercial outcomes. It’s just as important to create a culture that supports and celebrates commercialisation. Our approach is not just about short term wins, but about building long term capability and culture.
OUR APPROACH
Enhances existing professional service capacity and capability
By providing effective tools and frameworks it’s possible to empower existing professional service staff to support more commercialisation projects and provide higher value support. In essence increasing throughput without increasing resources.
OUR APPROACH
Increases the quantity & quality of commercial opportunities
By implementing efficient processes for identifying and developing opportunities we’re able to increase the number of high quality opportunities that enter existing university support mechanisms.
