About US
Crondar is a consultancy that specialises in knowledge translation in the agrifood and public health sectors. It uses best practice knowledge transfer methodologies and defined outcomes frameworks to ensure advisory work remains right on target, as defined by the client. No out-of-scope research adventures!
Operating since 1999, Crondar has been contracted by Australian and international governments, not-for-profit organisations, start-up companies and universities. Dr. Gregory Harper was the founder and is the managing Director of Crondar.
Based in Melbourne Australia, Crondar Pty Ltd has facilitated workshops, delivered technical evaluations, provided advice to boards, all based rigorously on quantitative evidence and/or qualitative analysis. We have also worked with organisations in New Zealand, Vietnam and India.
In more recent times the MD or principal consultants have provided structured mentorship to startup companies, research groups or mid-career STEM professionals.
What we can do for you
We work independently or in consortia to:
- Establish transparent outcomes frameworks for planning projects with the outputs and measurables clearly differentiated and defined;
- Plot paths-to-impact in the context of existing government policies and innovation systems;
- Complete intellectual property scans and plan tactics from TRL 2 to 7;
- Raise money for innovation or evaluation projects;
- Manage project progress and ensure delivery by diverse teams;
- Evaluate dispassionately and independently, the change delivered in the context of modern Australian systems and jurisdictions.
We operate through short and long term consultancy arrangements and are open to novel approaches.
