NSW has excellence in basic research and clinical development underpinned by strong links to a world class health system. Bridging gaps in intellectual property and commercialisation support will help the state make sure valuable health and medical innovations reach patients and improve care.
Support for the NSW Health system
By better developing and managing our health research intellectual property, and supporting commercialisation, NSW Health has the potential to drive a culture of innovation in public health organisations and increase collaboration with universities, medical research institutes and industry. Increased support for innovation and commercialisation in public health organisations will ultimately lead to better patient outcomes and benefit NSW Health and the broader health system.
Support for the sector
We strengthen intellectual property development and commercialisation in the health and medical research sector in NSW through accessible commercialisation programs and networks for researchers, clinicians, entrepreneurs and intrapreneurs in the health sector.
