Technology realisation process

Projects must produce validated concepts and prototypes which the community or industry can continue to work with. We therefore monitor the research projects all the way from idea to demonstration. The Centre will use a Technology Maturation scale to measure progress against criteria to progress projects from concept to demonstration and deployment. Decision review boards (DRBs) will review projects at stage gates to progress with funding to the next stage.
