Abstract
Clustering of facilities and personnel, whether co-located or not, is an increasingly important strategy to stimulate scientific excellence and to promote innovative activities leading to commercialisation and utilisation of research outcomes. Australia has taken a prominent role in the development of medical research institutes (MRIs), several of which encompass a number of organisations. One such medical research institute is Bio21 Australia Ltd established in its current structure in 2002.
This Bio21 case study illustrates the collaborative nature of a MRI cluster, provides background on its governance and financing structure, the drivers and barriers to collaboration.
