Advancing Research

Honoa te tangata ki te tangata, te tangata ki te taiao, te tangata ki te rangahau, rangahaua ki whai hua.
Linking people to people, people to the world around us, people to research, research that brings ideas to life.

We develop capacity

We help researchers at all stages build skills such as developing competitive funding proposals and knowledge mobilisation plans. We work to advance the ideas of researchers from Māori, Pacific and other underrepresented backgrounds. We work with the University to help researchers understand and apply Vision Mātauranga principles.

We secure research funding

We help researchers identify and secure research funding opportunities that will create impact. We do this by supporting the development of strong proposals that succeed in obtaining funding. We also help you engage in contract research and consultancy with industry, governments and other organisations in New Zealand and around the world.

We connect people

With our rich network across sectors, we connect researchers to the right people, whether other researchers doing complementary work, community organisations improving lives in evidence-based ways, funding bodies looking to back great ideas, or experts who can provide advice on anything from patents to business plans to partnering with Māori.

Government and industry

When governments or businesses have research questions, we connect them to leading experts, whether through consultancy, contract research or groundbreaking partnership projects. When researchers have ideas for industry or government, we connect them to the business and policy leaders who can advance and apply those ideas.
