The University of Newcastle, Australia

Newcastle Innovation brings with it a renewed focus on supporting the University of Newcastle's researchers. An integral part of that support is identifying and maximising research opportunities that offer a solid return on investment for industry partners and the University. Newcastle Innovation's extensive professional training services to industry and government will also be expanded this year.

Newcastle Innovation is strengthening its role in developing and supporting innovation in local organisations at a national and international level. One of the key platforms to achieve this is to play a greater role in the prosperity and future of the Hunter region. Newcastle Innovation will establish a balance between servicing our local region as well as positioning our researchers in national and global fields.

In the long term, Newcastle Innovation will establish partnerships to develop spin-off knowledge-based companies that will attract funding to the region.
