Bench-to-boardroom scientists key to seize future

Date Time Bench-to-boardroom scientists key to seize future Australia’s governments, industry, and research community have a legacy-defining opportunity to seize the future by boosting research commercialisation with a new breed of ‘bench-to-boardroom scientists’. In its submission to the Government’s University Research Commercialisation consultation, Science & Technology Australia says Australia can and must do more to commercialise world-leading research more consistently and at a far greater scale. But to get there will require strategic investment and developing the specialised skills to train more Australian researchers to be ‘bench-to-boardroom scientists’ and ‘connectors of commercialisation’. Up to 2000 top researchers Australia-wide should be trained for specialist roles to propel the translation of promising technologies and become linchpins liaising between industry and university research.
