Collaboration required to succeed in clean energy race The federal government's acknowledgement last week that the national Green Emissions Trading Scheme may increase energy consumption costs in Australia adds additional pressure at a time when businesses and families are already feeling the squeeze from soaring global fuel prices. This increase is an unfortunate consequence of taking a proactive approach to combating climate change.
Optimising the Value of IP AIC CEO Dr Rowan Gilmore presented a paper last month at a seminar concerning the legal and commercial aspects of 'maximising the value of intellectual property'.
CEO's address to plenary at the CRCA 08 The CEO of the AIC, Dr. Rowan Gilmore, addressed the plenary session of the CRC-A conference in Sydney on 22 May. His presentation focussed on how CRCs can both serve the public good and produce commercial outcomes, and on leading practices used by CRCs to achieve these dual benefits.
AIC Policy and Advocacy The AIC regularly writes submissions to Government panels and committees to suggest policy measures that would assist commercialisation.
