OUR
WORK
For over a decade we have worked with leaders across the research, technology, industry, philanthropy, government and education sectors who want to transform how they engage with their audiences.
We believe in the revolutionary power of research to create a better world. We work with clients who share our vision—disruptors, change-makers and leaders who won’t settle for the status quo.
Whether your goal is to build funding, rankings, recruitment, influence, profile or collaborations, we are here to help.
We work across strategy and engagement - here are some examples of our publications we have produced for clients.
OUR
FOUNDER
Kylie Ahern’s work has set a new standard for engaging audiences with research and education, helping to unlock millions of dollars in research funding and attract many new researchers to the field.
Over the course of her career, she has co-founded three enormously successful multi-award-winning publications: COSMOS, Australia’s first home-grown science magazine; G Magazine, the first-ever “green lifestyle” sustainability-focused magazine; and The Brilliant, the first global publication for science communication.
Recognised internationally for her leadership in publishing, she helped lead Nature Publishing Group’s successful expansion into Australia and NZ.
As CEO of STEM Matters, Kylie is taking an innovative and strategic approach to help STEM organisations effectively relate their work and impact to funders, government, philanthropists and the public.
