The TTCF is a collaboration between leading universities across South Eastern Australia and New Zealand, and a capital provider – Westscheme, Western Australia’s largest non-government Superannuation Fund.
These parties have been brought together through the common goal of generating enhanced returns through investment in the commercial applications of research excellence.
TTCF aims to invest seed stage capital into early commercial research projects and spinout companies generated by member universities and across all sectors.
TTCF is managed by Trans Tasman Fund Management Pty Ltd (the Fund Manager). The collaborating universities - Monash University (Victoria), The University of Adelaide, Flinders University, The University of South Australia (South Australia) and The University of Auckland (New Zealand), and their technology transfer offices work closely with the Fund Manager to develop and assess the commercial application of technologies emanating from member universities.
