Innovation & Grants
We have extensive experience as lead applicant on successfully-funded grant programs, and we are also open to collaboration. We partner with government, academia, industry and the not-for-profit sector to develop next-generation AI systems in the risk and resilience domain—turning research into operational capability.
Delivering value for money
We’re experienced as lead applicant, including disciplined reporting and governance, milestone delivery, and compliance across a variety of innovation, research and commercialisation activities.
Our process
We move from proposal to prototype to pilot to deployment, ensuring funded innovation creates lasting capability.
Team effort
We design and deliver projects with partners — aligning research, operational needs, and measurable outcomes.
Open to collaboration
We actively seek collaborations with academia, industry partners, advocacy organisations, and government teams. We’re particularly interested in partnerships that connect rigorous research to real-world risk domains.
- Road safety & transport planning — predictive risk modelling, intervention evaluation, GIS-native workflows, and decision support.
- Crisis & emergency management — sensing, data aggregation, situational intelligence, preparedness and recovery support.
- Cyber security — readiness uplift, simulation tools, training systems and operational resilience.
If you’re exploring a joint bid or grant application, we can contribute as the technical delivery partner.
