Making contract and collaborative research activities easier

The Commercial Research Team connects AUT academics with industry, community, and Government. Our ‘light-touch’ policy provides a seamless process; ensuring collaborative research activities are more productive and valuable for all parties concerned.

• Building teams/consortia, for funding bids and project delivery
• Definition of work programmes
• Phasing and workflow planning, along with budgeting and authorization
• Negotiation of intellectual property terms and conditions
• Negotiation of price and delivery agreements
• Maintaining client relationships
