Fabian Lim

Industry Partnerships and Commercialisation Senior Executive, Faculty of Natural Sciences

Fabian completed undergraduate degrees in Electrical Engineering and Economics at the University of Melbourne, and his PhD in Biomedical Engineering at Monash University.

Following a postdoctoral position, Fabian joined the Medical Device Partnering Program, an Australian government program assisting medical device companies with the commercialisation of their products through POC development and validation.

Just prior to joining Imperial College, Fabian was part of the technology transfer team at the University of Melbourne, leading a team responsible for the commercialisation of physical science and medical device technologies. The responsibilities further extended to being part of boards of Directors as the nominated representative for the University of Melbourne in a few start-ups.

With 10+ years of experience in early-stage technology development and commercialisation, Fabian has a track record of licensing patented and software technologies in a broad array of applications as well as securing seed investments for start-ups.
