ANU Enterprise

What we do

ANU Enterprise provides a range of professional support services designed to maximise the impact of ANU’s research. We are equipped to work on a broad range of projects and consultancies, particularly those that partner with Industry and Government.

ANU Enterprise can provide business development and project management services that cover the whole lifespan of the project – from initial concept designs, bidding and budgeting, to logistics, delivery and impact assessments. These services are aimed at expanding ANU’s research opportunities, by assisting ANU experts to engage more extensively with Industry and Government.

All ANU Enterprise's services are tailored to meet the needs of the individual project at the request of the ANU.
