Paul D’Sylva is responsible for the management of Murdoch University’s research and the commercialisation of its intellectual property. Dr D’Sylva has a strong track record in raising investment capital for early stage scientific discoveries that has led to the development of a number of successful research joint ventures.
Dr D’Sylva has developed a joint venture with Westscheme Superannuation Fund to create the Murdoch-Westscheme Enterprise Fund – WA’s largest private fund under management. It provides a capital pool for early stage Murdoch University research that has strong commercial potential. It’s hoped this scheme will create, protect and leverage intellectual property from within the university.
