AVR3 was proud to participate in the National Industry PhD (NIPhD) Program Network and Panel Event at QUT, bringing together researchers, industry partners, students, and government representatives to discuss the value of industry-engaged research and collaborative innovation.

The event featured a panel discussion exploring the opportunities and impact of the National Industry PhD Program, with AVR3 Co-Director Professor Ronald Schroeter sharing insights alongside Jonny Kuo from Seeing Machines and current NIPhD candidates. The discussion highlighted how strong partnerships between universities and industry can help translate research into real-world outcomes.

As an AVR3 industry partner, Seeing Machines continues to play an important role in supporting research that addresses real-world challenges and advances the future of mobility.

AVR3 would also like to thank the National Industry PhD Program and the Campus Plus team, particularly Lauretta Grasso, for creating opportunities that connect researchers, industry, and government stakeholders. Programs such as the NIPhD are helping to strengthen industry collaboration, support emerging researchers, and deliver research with meaningful impact.

Thank you to everyone who attended and contributed to the event. We look forward to continuing these conversations and fostering partnerships that support innovation and research translation across Australia.
