Enterprise and Innovation Unit
Driving business development and maximising the commercial potential of research
The Enterprise and Innovation Unit supports the translation of discoveries into products, tools and technologies that reach those who need them most
We support and facilitate the translation of research into implemented interventions, build collaborations with industry stakeholders, and work to reduce market access barriers so LSTM’s intellectual property can deliver impact.
We work in line with LSTM’s mission to improve health outcomes in disadvantaged populations, with a particular focus on the needs of low- and middle-income countries, and alignment with local and regional health and economic priorities.
