I am about to commence a role as Programs Director with the recently announced iMOVE CRC, after working extensively throughout the bid application process.

My career has involved facilitating, creating and working in the collaborative space between academia and industry, - and mostly in the wireless communications space.  I am particularly interested in hearing and sharing ideas about how to facilitate successful collaboration in such a 'large' environment - 46 organisations (federal and (5) state governments, large and small industry, academia), $230m program over 10 years.

My interests extend from the general to the specifics of how and what processes are set up to support success and I'm keen to network with others about that.
