Proposals to network commercialisation centres expected before Xmas
By Peter Kerr for sticK
(sticK - Nov. 18 2010 ) Those with good ideas to help establish a networked and linked system for the country’s commercialisation centres can expect to be asked for them before Christmas.
That’s when a request for proposal should come out of the new Ministry of Science and Innovation, part of a plan to virtually connect the sometimes isolated skills and capabilities residing in individual universities and CRIs commercialisation units.
A National Network of Commercialisation Centres proposal is a way to improve the scale and commercial outcomes that are being generated by publicly funded research says Suse Reynolds, who is running the project on behalf of MSI.
“We want to build on what’s been taking place already, more effectively,” she says.
