Invention to innovation : how scientists can drive our economy

"Invention to Innovation" charts a course for scientists, leaders, investors and policy makers to translate research into growing innovative, competitive companies and industries. With extensive experience and insights gained over three decades, Dr Larry Marshall demonstrates how science can generate new value that grows markets and creates jobs while also delivering social, environmental and economic benefit.Through a combination of practical advice, real-life examples and big-picture vision, this thought-provoking work shows how Australia's world-class science can navigate successfully across the 'Valley of Death' to become successful innovations and grow our economy. With contributions from leaders in business, research, venture and scientists who have made the leap to become 'Scientist CEOs', "Invention to Innovation" is essential reading for anyone who believes Australia's excellent science deserves a vibrant, globally competitive innovation ecosystem to ensure our sustainable and prosperous future.
