About Tom

Having worked at the Research, Development and Implementation boundary between commercial and academic ventures since gaining my undergraduate degree in the mid 1980’s, I have earned a reputation for rigorous, practical innovation, and am recognised for my interpersonal, technical, management and leadership skills. One of my core motivators is a commitment to helping groups and organisations – be they individuals, sectoral or regional – work together to develop joint interests. I understand the needs and drivers of commercial, research and government agencies, and have a history of providing effective linkages between these three, sometimes disparate, communities.
