CSIRO On Prime Innovation Reward 2024

ON Prime is a government-funded, competitive program designed to support research teams in taking their projects to the next level through customer discovery and market validation. This nine-week program equips teams with the skills and confidence needed to engage with real-world applications of their research, facilitating the attraction of funding, new partnerships, and increased industry engagement.

Only a select few teams with Australia's most promising research breakthroughs, demonstrating discipline and optimal completions throughout the full program, will be considered for reward. These teams must showcase their ability to translate their research into real-world impact, engaging in customer discovery and market validation, with the support of expert facilitators and mentors.

Teams also gain expert facilitation and mentorship, helping them refine their research, demonstrate its impact, and engage effectively with potential users or stakeholders. The program culminates in a showcase event, where teams present their progress and benefit from networking opportunities. ON Prime empowers teams to communicate their research more effectively, increase industry engagement, and explore opportunities such as licensing intellectual property or launching new ventures.

Overall, ON Prime is a valuable opportunity for research teams to translate their work into practical, impactful solutions, with the reward of future growth, collaboration, and further funding opportunities.
