Abstract
SummaryCSIRO was established in 1949 to provide research for industry and government to enhance Australia’s economic development and international competitiveness. Over a period of almost 60 years CSIRO has undergone a process of evolution and change. A substantial proportion of the Organisation’s research revenue is now derived from external sources and there is a greater commitment to partnering and collaboration with other public research agencies, universities, industry and government. More recently, CSIRO has adopted a much greater strategic focus in nine key areas of research through the Flagships Program. The research programme focus of the collaboration through Cooperative Research Centres has given way to a more project-oriented approach through specific and targeted collaborations and joint ventures. These changes are re-stating the role and focus of CSIRO in Australia’s national innovation system.
