On Prime 2018
Will 2018 be the year that you turn your science or technology research ideas into reality? CSIRO ON Prime might just be the thing to get you there.
Applications are now open for ON Prime, Australia’s sci-tech pre-accelerator designed to help researchers translate their big ideas into real-life impact.
ON Prime is a part-time pre-accelerator that brings together Australia’s brightest researchers—that’s where you come in—with leading entrepreneurs, business and commercialisation specialists and inspiring mentors. Together, you will test paths for your IP and/or technology through a process of customer discovery and market validation, and unlock your entrepreneurial nous required to take your work to the next level.
The best bit? There is no cost to you for participating and there’s no strings attached. Teams selected into ON Prime also have the opportunity to earn up to $5,000 as performance bonus throughout the program.
More than 30 UON researchers have successfully completed ON Prime in 2016 and twice in 2017. Hear what some of the recent university research teams who’ve participated in ON Prime had to say about their ON experience and why you should apply.
Applications for the next round of ON Prime (April-June) close on Sunday 4 February 2018.
