Your interests

I am leading the bid for an Advanced Medical Biotechnologies CRC (AMB) for the 2018 round. AMB proposes to assemble a collaborative network across industry and researchers to support Australian SMEs in getting their biological medical therapeutic products to market. The AMB will address key industry problems and roadblocks along the product development pipeline that are currently impeding companies by; developing new technologies for advanced manufacturing of biological products (including live viruses, antibodies and proteins); building and connecting a national capability for GMP protein manufacture; tailored support for pre-clinical and clinical services and dedicated workforce training.

I would like to meet with SMEs involved in development of biological medical products and organisations that could provide capability and technologies to help solve their problems. To see our prospectus go to:

Advanced Urban Agrifood CRC

I am leading the bid to establish an Advanced Urban Agrifood CRC (AUA).  The AUA CRC aims to develop unique urban agrifood solutions tailored to Southern Hemisphere climates and markets with a view to developing export scale for value-added fresh, health and personalised foods (‘wellness’ foods). Global demand for provenance-protected goods in these categories is projected to reach AU$8 trillion per annum by 2025, with the majority of new demand arising in Asia.  The AUACRC program delivery model involves piloting integrated agrifood cluster solutions, colocated with regional and capital city airports. 

The AUA CRC bid consortium includes Food Innovation Australia, NSW Farmers, UNSW, UNE, WSU and CDU.  

We would like to meet with large firms and SMEs with interests in high-tech indoor cropping technology; product innovation in health foods, 'free from' foods, nutraceuticals; and flexible food processing technology and logistics solutions for highly customised goods.
