Building Industry Collaborations for Research Impact

Are you an EMCR looking to strengthen your industry partnerships and maximise the real-world impact of your research?

Join us for a free interactive training workshop, where you’ll gain the skills and strategies needed to successfully engage with industry and secure funding.

The event will be opened by Emeritus Professor Helene Marsh AO FAA FTSE, followed by two invited talks:

• Professor Christina Twomey FAHA FASSA, Chief Research Officer at the Australian Research Council (ARC), will discuss the proposed changes to the ARC’s national funding program and how they will support EMCRs in building industry collaborations.
• Dr Luke Deacon, Senior Facilitator of the Regional University Industry Collaboration (RUIC) Program, will discuss a regional funding scheme and strategies for fostering industry partnerships in smaller regional universities.

Following the talks, Dr Tamar Sztal from The GrantEd Group will facilitate a three-hour interactive workshop, which will focus on training EMCRs for industry grant writing and proposal development.

A networking lunch session will conclude the workshop.
