Company Profile:
MTPConnect is Australia's Life Sciences Innovation Accelerator – an independent, not-for-profit organisation established by the Australian Government to champion the continuing growth of Australia's vibrant medical products sector.
MTPConnect forges stronger connections between research and industry to help maximize opportunities for Australians to not only make scientific and technological breakthroughs, but to see them developed through the proof-of-concept stage and successfully translated and commercialised.
These outcomes are achieved with a focus on improving collaboration and commercialisation, funding cutting-edge innovations, improving management and workforce skills, optimising the regulatory and policy environment and improving access to global supply chains and strategic international markets.
BioMelbourne Network respectfully acknowledges the Traditional Custodians of the unceded lands and waters of Victoria: the Bunurong, Gunaikurnai and Wurundjeri peoples, on which the BioMelbourne Network and our Victorian members work, and as well as the lands and waters of our members further afield. We pay respect to their Elders past and present. As Australia’s first scientists, we acknowledge the significant contribution that they and other Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people have made and continue to make to the research and knowledge systems that inform our community and our sector.
We acknowledge that Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people continue to live in a spiritual and sacred relationship with this country and recognise our responsibility to continue to work towards reconciliation.
