What happens to our research?

The MacDiarmid Institute's researchers have had some notable successes in commercialising their research, including Magritek and Anzode, and has provided valuable support to a number of emerging companies, such as Izon and Aeroqual. A significant number of new commercialisation projects are underway (e.g. Synthodics), or are emerging. Researchers like Simon Hall, David Williams and Bob Buckley have been involved in commercializing research for more than 20 years.
