A.M.
Queensland, Australia
It has radically changed how I value my expertise and my work. I am no longer simply grateful for the opportunity to collaborate with external partners, I have written proposals and pitched my ideas, securing and leveraging funds to increase the scale and scope of the project.
J.B.
Victoria, Australia
It has absolutely super-charged our project! In a 6 month period we have gone from no commercialisation plan at all to a strategy that is guided by many conversations with big pharma and VC. This has given us opportunities to have an impact far beyond anything we had envisaged.
M.D.
Victoria, Australia
It helped me develop my project idea and develop entrepreneurial mindset, and also helped me improve skills for my current role. Dougal and the team are very engaging, supportive, responsive and enthusiastic and that keeps me motivated and more eager to have my project succeed.
J.B.
New South Wales, Australia
This is fantastic, it carefully walked us through how an idea can be transformed into start-up over only a few months. The content was engaging, helpful and practical. I felt like Bright Arena was a space where I could be ambitious, and road test my strategies with like-minded scientists.
K.R.
Queensland, Australia
This is challenging the way I thought about the potential value and impact of my research. It provided a framework to transform what was in essence a ‘pie-in-the-sky’ idea into a feasible project with tangible objectives. It has transformed my approach to translating my research.
Startup
Australia
Our early stage venture team had no experience building or managing a sales process, which made it difficult to generate consistent results and build a scalable sales pipeline. The team has developed strong sales skills and confidence, positioning us for growth and success.
