Anne Barnett: Wellington UniVentures

Anne Barnett is the chief executive of Wellington UniVentures, the tech transfer office of Victoria University of Wellington, and she joins us on Talking Tech Transfer to discuss her plans of turning the organisation into a social enterprise renowned throughout the world for the impact it generates.

She ponders the importance of the Brandon BioCatalyst and NZ Innovation Booster funds, and examines how the pandemic has re-aligned her views on joining international groups.

Barnett also looks at the challenges around finding senior tech transfer practitioners and tells us what she would love to change about the profession if she had a magic wand.
