Uniseed began as a $20 million venture fund, founded by the Universities of Queensland and Melbourne. In 2005 through an investment commitment from Westscheme, Western Australia's largest non-government superannuation fund, the University of New South Wales and further investment from the founding Universities, the fund grew to over $60 million.
From 30 June 2011, AustralianSuper, one of Australia’s largest and best performing industry superannuation funds, took over responsibility for Westscheme’s portfolio and remaining investment commitment after a successor fund transfer.
Uniseed has a commitment to successfully commercialise the outcomes of Australian research and ingenuity from the University of Queensland, the University of Melbourne and the University of New South Wales.
It represents an important step in forging a link between academia and business that focuses on the commercialisation of innovative ideas and inventions for global consumption.
Uniseed has strong capabilities to package research outcomes from the academic research environment. |
