Background

About Corinna Dwan

Passionate about transforming ocean resources into life-changing health solutions As Director of Partnerships & Engagement at the Marine Bioproducts Cooperative Research Centre, I'm privileged to support Australia's emergence as a global powerhouse in marine bioproduct development. Every day, I work with brilliant minds across industry, academia, and government to unlock the extraordinary potential hidden in our marine environment. My journey began in the pharmaceutical industry across Europe, where I spent 18 years navigating complex regulatory landscapes at companies like GlaxoSmithKline, Servier, and Boehringer Ingelheim. Those experiences taught me that the most impactful innovations happen when you build bridges between scientific possibility and commercial reality. What drives me? The intersection of rigorous science and real-world application. I've learned that meaningful change requires both technical expertise and the ability to bring people together around a shared vision. Australia sits at the heart of some of the world's most pristine marine ecosystems, and we're just beginning to understand how marine organisms can revolutionize nutraceuticals, supplements, and pharmaceuticals. I'm energized by the challenge of building partnerships that matter. I believe the future belongs to those who can navigate complexity while keeping sight of the human impact. Currently working on: Expanding MBCRC's industry partnerships, advancing Australia's marine biotech ecosystem, and proving that the ocean's greatest treasures are still waiting to be discovered. Let's connect if you're passionate about marine innovation, sustainable biotechnology, or building partnerships that create lasting impact.#MarineBiotechnology #Partnerships #Innovation #Tasmania #Pharmaceuticals #Sustainability
