The Monash BDI Industry Engagement (IE) Committee was established to increase the connectivity between our researchers and industry, be it through industry training for PhD students, funding opportunities through industry:academia grant schemes, or the establishment of Research Agreements with big pharma. They are here to help!

The IE Team are pleased to announce financial support valued at $500 to sponsor a limited number of BDI researchers to participate in the Bridge Program, which transfers skills on the commercialisation of pharmaceutical research.

Content includes:

• Protecting intellectual property
• Research commercialisation planning
• Structuring biotech financing deals
• Entrepreneurial skills

Running from June – November 2017, the program combines face-to-face, online and blended learning technologies.
