The kin8 Difference

Our Story

Our Mission is to turbo charge the tranlsation and commercialisaiton of Australian innovations

Innovation is critical for igniting productivity growth, and by extension sustained economic growth, over the long term. As a nation, Australia produces world-class research that is recognised as highly innovative by The Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD). In fact, Australia accounted for just over 3% of the world's top 10% of most-cited scientific publications in 2016, just behind Canada, Japan and France (2017 report). However, the number of patent applications, high-tech exports and startups created are well below the OECD average.  We can do better.

Australia ranks last on the proportion of business collaborating with research bodies

 

This is where we come in. kin8 is the bridge between the commercial world and the academic world. Through facilitating open innovation strategy among commercial partners, university research teams and global industry leaders, our core focus is research and technology translation for better economic and social outcomes for all. This includes building innovative environments, both virtual and physical, where diverse individuals, teams and knowledge can intersect to create new ideas and outcomes.
