NICTA transfers tech to start-up

Australian research centre NICTA has agreed to provide its advanced optimisation and search software to a specially established commercialisation company, Cohesive Data. Investors in the start-up company — Tim Sullivan, Todd Vieguti, and Peter Vroom — have been joined by Dr Raymond Wong, leader of the NICTA development team. The Cohesive operation will be based at the Australian Technology Park in Sydney. Sullivan said that products containing the NICTA IP will initially be marketed to US mobile carriers to help them provide a more seamless information delivery to their customers. “We feel this is a great fit with the carriers’ needs for delivering large volumes of information to an ever-growing mobile market,” explained. www.nicta.com.au
