Public Funders face increasing expectations to maximize the impact and benefits of R&D.  Their role extends beyond ensuring that investments produce research articles and patents.  Today's expectations for R&D and innovation include demonstrating broader social and economic returns.

VISTA's specialized areas of practice focus on demonstrating the impacts of R&D by:

• Assessing market potential, economic impact and the broader social impacts of R&D
• Evaluating the benefits of public investments in R&D
• Priortizing and positioning R&D and innovation policies, strategies and programs to optimize public policy objectives
• Evaluating program outputs, outcomes and impacts
• Assessing R&D proposals based on their potential for knowledge transfer, social benefit and technology commercialization outcomes

Pubic Funders can engage VISTA's art, science and passion to generate more benefits from strategic R&D investment decisions.
