Registered Research Service Providers (RSP) (e.g., universities) can be used to gain access expertise, resources, and the capability to conduct your R&D activities. In addition to utilizing their services, you can also consider collaborating with an RSP who may be able to provide specific staff, knowledge, or infrastructure for your R&D activities. A list of registered RSPs can be found on the Australian Government Business website.
