About Us

Our History

Xenex Group began life as The Centre for Industry Research and Strategy(CIR+S), having been formed to service a prominent University in Western Australia during the 1980s.

This partnership was primarily formed to commercialise Intellectual Property created by the faculties. In so doing, the demand for services such as research, management and marketing advisory, coaching and financing/funding gradually evolved the fledgling organization into the multi-disciplined consultancy it is today.

Today, Xenex Group has a diverse range of services focused on the following four core areas:

  • Management and Marketing Consulting
  • Grant Preparation (R&D and Export)
  • Capital Raising for Small to Medium Enterprises
  • Intellectual Property Commercialisation
  • Migration Support Services

Our Approach

As management and marketing consultants, much of what we do is helping businesses implement change and performance improvement, whether that's by improving your customer reach, enhancing your market differentiation or by providing internal and external business process improvement.

Xenex Group's senior consultants have significant management experience across a broad range of sectors including corporate services, education, industry, finance, retail and consumer. Whatever your business, we've worked there.

We deliver solutions that are driven by your business, not the latest technologies, and we work with you through planning, execution and implementation.

Our methodologies are flexible yet disciplined. We can tailor our approach to suit you, your market and your environment.

Xenex's expertise allows us to look at new ways to improve your business; to look at the "what if's" and to explore new approaches.
