EMPOWERING PEOPLE WHO COMMERCIALISE RESEARCH

The Kiwi Innovation Network (KiwiNet) is a consortium of Universities and Crown Research Institutes who are dedicated to taking a collaborative approach to research commercialisation. KiwiNet’s role is to empower people who are involved in research commercialisation by helping them to access the tools, connections, investment and support they need.

By collaborating on projects, combining capability and sharing networks, we, at KiwiNet, believe that we can better leverage the limited resources available for commercialisation, and help one another achieve better commercial outcomes for New Zealand.
