To get optimum value from your research you need an R&D and innovation strategy that makes your effort more effective. Together we’ll co-design a strategy underpinned by the world’s best practice ISO innovation standards, so you have the best strategy to do your best work - covering off on IP management, stage gate systems and portfolio management and measurement.

You’re at the design stage, and you want to do it ‘right’. The truth is there’s no single ‘right’ way to do innovation, and there’s no one-size-fits-all solution. So our approach starts with understanding you, your environment and what you need to achieve. Then we bring in the specialist expertise to design a program that delivers short, medium and long term impact to producers and industry.

You want industry research that drives real-world change (not a document that gathers dust). We help you design high impact R&D projects with clear outcomes that deliver significant value to producers. By engaging the right industry stakeholders at the right times, we ensure your projects attract investment and make a difference.

The right approach to stakeholder engagement can be a game-changer for your project. When you connect effectively you gain unique insights that lead to better-designed programs and projects. We’re skilled at engaging diverse stakeholder groups, making sure they feel valued and heard. This gives you a deeper understanding of what’s on the mind of your customers and stakeholders so you can use their feedback to drive stronger outcomes.

R&D and innovation is all about decisions, and we’re known for our exceptional decision-making support. Our award-winning tools help you make tough decisions with confidence and clarity - like whether to push ahead with an idea or call it quits and move on. We optimise your processes so you can make informed, confident decisions at all stages of the R&D process, from stage-gate design to our award-winning Impact and Commercialisation (IC Readiness®) program.

There’s a wide world of potential partners out there. But which partnerships will ensure your R&D achieves the highest value and impact? We identify and qualify industry partners to take your research further. Or if you’re an industry body, we can match you with a research provider who is perfectly positioned to take on the work you can’t do yourself. We’ll do the leg work so you can enjoy partnerships that are high impact and hassle free.

Need a fresh perspective or extra pair of expert hands to help you tackle a strategic project, industry challenge or out-of-the-box initiative? Our team brings unmatched technical and industry experience across a diverse range of sectors - from agriculture to aquaculture and fisheries, biotechnology to environment, manufacturing to water. We’ve seen what works (and what doesn’t) so we can give your project a head start and coach you to the finish line.

Innovation is powered by people, and we’re here to bring out the best in yours! With over 40 R&D and innovation management modules, we design custom training solutions to meet your needs.
