The Arbutus Innovation Centre enables companies to reduce their initial capital outlay, convert some of their fixed costs into variable costs, utilise their resources more efficiently and fast-track their market strategies. Arbutus has created a network of separate entities and business units under one roof. These entities lean on support from universities, hospitals, clinical, technology suppliers, manufacturing, legal firms, data analysis firms and lifestyle service providers based in numerous countries. The various stakeholders have a mutual goal - the research, development and commercialisation of plant-derived products. Arbutus Innovation centre partners enjoy minimised cap-expenditure, shared funding, data and back-office services. This interdependence and collaborative structure strengthens business plans, minimises risk and improves rate of execution. The centre enables expansion into new product/service areas or geographic markets while encouraging greater cross-fertilisation and improvements in performance, without forfeiting innovation or flexibility. Arbutus Innovation Centre provides a framework for creating integrated packages of products and services, and thus diversifying beyond a company's core offering. Arbutus enables it's partners to build a specific area of expertise, establish a competitive advantage as a result of that expertise and sell its products, knowledge or skills, leaving activities that are better performed by others to Arbutus or it's partners within the incubation hub.
