MTPConnect WA Life Sciences Innovation Hub

The MTPConnect WA Life Sciences Innovation Hub is co-funded through the WA Government’s New Industry Fund and the University of Western Australia to accelerate economic growth and create new jobs and Industries. 

It is one of the three WA Government Innovation Hubs (together with WA Data Science and AustCyber WA) that deliver programs to connect the innovation community, build capacity and new skills, attract investment, and foster commercialisation.
