SCALE-UP BIOMEDICAL MANUFACTURING CAPABILITY
 

Due to open in 2026, TRI’s translational manufacturing facility will become Australia’s first scale-up multi-modal biomedical cGMP facility for maturing, high-potential, medtech and biotech startups. TM@TRI exists to enable exciting medical advances to reach maturity and keep manufacturing on Australian shores. It will attract a range of innovators, from those developing lifesaving medicines to new medical devices, capable of transforming health outcomes for patients.

Our unique biomedical cGMP model will provide expertise, specialist equipment, resourcing and support services normally out of reach for startups. This facility aims to significantly reduce the barrier to entry by becoming a trusted partner, able to support the journey through scale-up, technology transfer and execution. 

Start-up and non-commercial companies ready for at least Phase I clinical trial manufacturing will be able to manage their own manufacturing processes and product commercialisation pathway whilst maintaining their intellectual property and knowhow.

The outcome - delivery of new diagnostics, medical devices and therapies towards real-world impacts for patients.
