Advancing Wits ideas to improve society

We connect Wits researchers with the government departments, development agencies, private sector companies and international funders that need rigorous, independent research to make better decisions. Our team manages the full business and administrative lifecycle of every engagement, allowing researchers to focus on their work and clients to focus on their outcomes.

We support the translation of Wits intellectual property into real-world solutions. Through commercial deal structuring, IP licensing and the formation and development of spinout companies, we work with researchers and the Wits Innovation Centre to take ideas from research output to viable, investable venture. If you have developed something at Wits that could work in the world, we can help you build the path to get it there.

We deliver conferences and events that are complex, content-rich, high profile and reputationally important. Our experience spans university structures, government departments, international funders, research institutions and private sector organisations. We understand what it takes to manage many voices, priorities and expectations in one room, and to make the outcome feel effortless to everyone in it.
