Education and training | Scholars | Technology transferConstruction Innovations Commercialisation/Technology Transfer Program
is designed to enhance the transfer of research outputs into commercial or other outcomes of economic, environmental or social benefit to Australia.
The three guiding principles in achieving this are:
- to ensure Intellectual Property (IP) management and strategies for commercialisation are targeted to potential commercial opportunities
- to transfer public good research outcomes to Construction Innovation partners, the construction industry and the broader Australian community
- to ensure that smart and streamlined systems are utilised to effectively manage research activities in a focussed and targeted manner, allowing easy identification and exploitation of commercialisation opportunities.
Construction Innovation is implementing the following strategies.
- educate and train key Construction Innovation Personnel to understand management of IP and strategies for commercialisation
- develop Commercialisation Plans for targeted Construction Innovation Projects
- partner with others in the commercialisation of research outcomes.
The success of this strategy will be measured by the growth in income and industry uptake from commercialisation and IP.
Strategy 2 - Technology Transfer to Industry, the Australian Community and Globally
- transfer Project outcomes to partners and industry.
The success of this strategy will be measured by the activities undertaken by Construction Innovation personnel, including participation in industry, trade and academic conferences, invitations as keynote speakers, publications for industry users, and media appearances.
Strategy 3 - Smart and Streamlined Management Solutions
- conduct research activities and effectively manage budgets with smart and streamlined systems.
The success of this strategy will be measured by the growth in income and industry uptake from commercialisation and IP.
