Winning More Research Funding Through Design
2025-01-15 12:00 - 15:00 (Australia/Brisbane) | Online
The achievement of value and impact from R&D starts with the design of the project. Without a strong and comprehensive design it is likely that key information needs will be missed which results in poor research design and funding not being obtained.
This workshop delivers an accessible, practical overview of R&D project design methods and how to use them to create projects that deliver impact. We’ll cover the range of options, when to choose different design approaches, and practical ways to determine the best design approach that enables you to meet R&D investor requirements. The workshop is designed for anyone who wants to feel confident in designing high impact R&D projects that meet industry and grant funding requirements – especially those that may have received recent ‘unfortunately you were unsuccessful’ letters.

Transforming R&D Impact
2024-03-07 12:00 - 13:00
Join us on March 7th as we unpack the 10 key findings from an 18-month research project into the system and structural anomalies that are affecting R&D investment, design, implementation and impact across Australia.
These insights look at the interactions between research teams, corporates, not-for-profits, government, cooperative research centres (CRCs) and rural research and development corporations (RDCs).
If you want to learn more, join our leadership team as they discuss the system and process changes that organisations can make to help generate more impact from R&D.
