R&D on the road
Following its successful technology breakfast forums and other showcases, IRL is running a series of seminars throughout the country to boost understanding of the benefits of research and development to New Zealand industry.
IRL is a Crown Research Institute dedicated to supporting New Zealand’s manufacturing and services sector, with a long and successful track record of innovation and technology development.
IRL Planning Manager David Archibald says one of the aims of the workshops, run in partnership with regional development organisations, is to help businesses access funding to support technology development.
“Businesses are encouraged to come along and learn more about how they can leverage support for innovation and R&D that can increase their export potential and international competitiveness,” he says.
To date, seminars have been held in Tauranga, Timaru, and Dunedin. Approximately 20 more seminars are being planned, to reach all regional centres. Check out our Events page for more details.
