The annual Survey of Commercialisation Outcomes (SCOPR) is produced every year by Knowledge Commercialisation Australasia (KCA) based on their analysis of data from Australian and New Zealand universities and research agencies.
UniServices, the University’s not-for-profit company that transforms research into global impact starting in Aotearoa New Zealand, was out in front with 39 active spinout and start-up companies for 2022, up from our second place of 32 in 2021, ahead of the University of Queensland in second with 32 and the Commonwealth Scientific and Industrial Research Organisation (CSIRO with 31).
We also shot-up in the ‘New start-up and spinout companies’ section with 11, an increase from 4 in 2021 and second to the University of New South Wales with 12. Melbourne’s Monash University was third with seven.
“These are significant results for UniServices given this is only third year we have entered the survey,” says Dr Andy Shenk, UniServices CEO.
“Congratulations to all of our teams who have worked with dedication and tenacity to achieve these great results.”
