With a goal to help transform Australia’s electronic technologies, FLEET welcomes partnerships with industry organisations.

FLEET always welcome new links with collaborators with complementary expertise. Engagement opportunities include: project collaboration, personnel exchange and visits, leverage for external funding sources, access to cutting-edge research facilities and connecting with the global FLEET network

Research Translation

FLEET is committed to boosting the Australian R&D sector and creating distinct opportunities to create high value IPs for transforming electronic technologies by focusing on developing advanced structures that will offer dissipationless electronics. We will achieve these by:

  • Producing suites of important IP in the electronic materials sector. These will serve as the basis for establishing spin-off companies
  • Leveraging our strong ties to research centres at nodes with foci on novel materials research and translation
  • Building strong links to the intermediary research institutes and providing an avenue to deliver the IPs to the wider development laboratories with commercialisation focus, and
  • Liaising with partners both in Australia and internationally interested in novel electronic devices and systems through our network.

In addition, FLEET is skilling up its ECRs for future success, with transferable skills that will allow them to succeed in industry just as in academia. And FLEET training and seminars in entrepreneurship, commercialisation and industry engagement ensure that all members have the necessary skills for research translation.

Drop us an email to contact@fleet.org.au for details on how we could collaborate.
