Introducing the Co-Lab Base Program

Co-Lab, ACU’s business and innovation hub, is expanding its innovation and entrepreneurial learning services within ACU by piloting a commercialisation program dedicated to members of the research community.

If you are eager to unlock the potential of your research and to explore ways to build deep, sustained partnerships with industry, community groups, and government then the Co-Lab Base Program is for you.
 
The Co-Lab Base Program is a hands-on, on-line, experiential learning program delivered in partnership with Cruxes Innovation, which gives you the tools and the skills to identify and then bridge that gap between industry and academia.

What skills will participants attain?

Over a period of four weeks, this fast-paced and practical program provides support to participants from our research community to develop vital cross-organisational skills that include:

• tools and methods to identify, build and consolidating engagement with potential industry, government and community partners
• capability to identifying and communicate the value of their research
• skills to uncover problems into real world solutions for potential partners, using your research.
