Business Opportunities

Add value to your business

Business and industry are increasingly looking outside their organisations to find solutions to technical problems and social issues.  A growing trusted source of innovation are public research institutions (such as the University of Adelaide), which are increasingly sharing ideas and best practices with their industrial counterparts.

Dozens of companies in a wide variety of sectors have gained significant economic advantages by working with the University to develop new ideas and innovations. Collaborative research projects between industry and universities offer significant scope for the development of new ideas and practices, new patents, solutions to technical problems and in some cases, the development of new products—all of which can translate into a sharper competitive edge.

In addition to this, your company may have the option to leverage grant or funding opportunities, or you may be entitled to 45 per cent refundable tax credit (the equivalent to a 150 per cent concession).

Engaging with our researchers has never been easier; if your company has a problem that needs addressing, please contact Adelaide Research and Innovation to discuss how The University of Adelaide might be able to solve your problem for you.
