“External funding for research projects is very important for us. Unity is very aligned in what we’re doing because it’s about social responsibility, good health outcomes and good community outcomes. This is more than a funding partnership though. We will be sharing resources. Unity has a lot of customers who are engaged in this work and have the knowledge and best practice which will be useful to us.”
