Location
Melbourne & Online
Commercialisation is evolving – and the next wave is inclusive, impact driven and globally connected.
Join Knowledge Commercialisation Australiasia for a thought provoking session with Dr Irene Dal Poz, Head of Impact Strategy at Oxentia (UK), as we explore how innovation systems worldwide are redefining value, inclusion and venture potential.
Oxentia was born out of Oxford University Innovation and now works globally to strengthen innovation ecosystems that deliver impact. At Oxentia, Irene leads innovation management programs and specialised training for technology transfer professionals. She holds a joint PhD in Philosophy from Monash University and the University of Warwick and brings deep expertise in driving systemic change across diverse innovation systems.
What to expect:
- Insights from the UK Innovation System: How social impact is reframing commercialisation in practice
- Discover some of the latest trends shaping Humanities, Arts and Social Sciences (HASS) research commercialisation and social innovation and impact;
- Get inspired about new approaches to value and venture creation.
We will also ground the discussion in Australia’s context – at a time when our host, the University of Melbourne, Genesis Fund backs its first social enterprise, Next Level Collaboration, and Australia sharpens its focus on delivering greater value from research.
Q&A built in. Networking included. Real conversation about what is next.
