ABOUT ITEK

ITEK is a commercialisation company wholly owned by the University of South Australia. Its strategy is to create long-term value through the licensing of Intellectual Property (IP) and the creation of spin-off companies from research conducted at the University.

ITEK's primary objective is to deliver long term economic value and community benefit from research conducted at the University of South Australia. These benefits are many and varied, but focus on commercialising technology by applying knowledge to create and grow companies, products and services, establishing and developing collaboration opportunities with industry, building the University and Schools reputation and delivering a financial return.

Commercialisation opportunities are managed through a staged process of development that sees increasing levels of resource committed as the commercialisation opportunity is firmed up and risk is reduced. This approach results in a pipeline of commercialisation opportunities at varying stages of development and maturity.
