Doing Business with Go8
The Group of Eight universities understand that connecting with business and government is a vital element in their efforts to advance Australia’s wellbeing. Committees of senior staff within Group of Eight universities work collaboratively on a range of issues including research and research commercialisation.
If your business would like to find out more about engaging with one of these committees please contact the Go8 secretariat.
Phone: +61 2 6239 5488

Alternatively, all Go8 member universities have specialised staff dedicated to facilitating productive relationships between researchers, business and government and assisting researchers in the commercialisation of their research.
Research Offices at Go8 Universities can provide assistance and advice about opportunities to collaborate on research. Our website provides the contact details for the Directors of Research Offices around the country.
