Introduction

The Australian TCF Technology Network creates an environment that enhances the ability for TCF companies to participate in the development of future technologies that may lead to the commercialisation of products into the global TCF market. It will do this by:

• Creating a network that has both an intermediary/brokerage aspect and a general information aspect;
• Facilitating linkages between companies, researchers and financiers in both TCF and non-TCF sectors;
• Providing a showcase for Australian TCF R&D activities both in Australia and overseas;
• Creating an environment that allows for effective technology transfer and innovation in the TCF sector that nurtures the adoption of future ideas.

With linkages to the broader Australian based Innovation Xchange and international networks in the United States, Asia and Europe the network will be able to draw on information, knowledge and expertise of global researchers – private and public – to provide benefit to the Australian industry's technological development.

Registration to the database is free of charge as are the initial facilitation aspects of meetings between network registrants while charges for events run under the program will be kept to a minimum - to ensure that companies have as great an opportunity as possible to learn about the latest innovation and R&D prospects. Members of the TFIA, as with all events managed by the Council, receive an additional discount.

The network is managed by the peak representative body for the Australian textile and clothing sectors, the Council of Textile and Fashion Industries of Australia Limited, and has the backing of the Victorian Government and Victorian research and educational institutions.
