As the Pre-seed Investment Manager at AgResearch, I manage the relationships between scientists and KiwiNet, facilitating the commercialisation of our science. The main goal is to identify early stage science that has the potential to become cutting-edge products or solutions and take them to industry, to solve real-world problems. Each project offers a unique value to industry, therefore we work on the commercialisation strategy to fit for purpose and ensure all parties can benefit from it.
