About us
Trillium is an impact-led social enterprise operating between industry and academia. We have chosen this structure to give us the greatest chance of achieving our mission - to accelerate the adoption of trusted intelligent systems for the benefit of humanity.
We balance delivering impact in a financially sustainable way. We aim to give our team, our researchers and our faculty a great journey and the chance to do some of the best work of their lives.
We are different from traditional profit and shareholder-led companies as we do not need to maximise our returns for owners and shareholders. Instead, we invest any profit we make into new projects and programs. We are also different to charities as we can apply a wider range of business models and approaches to increase our impact, and when appropriate, maximise commercial opportunities and assets.
How we work
We build effective interdisciplinary teams to tackle the most interesting and important challenges of our time. These range from detecting and managing bushfires, to creating detailed maps of resources on the Moon, from mitigating the effects of global heating to deploying artificial intelligence (AI) tools into orbit.
Our research programs apply agile methods to make rapid progress towards solutions, and are guided by academic rigor and open science principles. We build supportive communities involving top-level academic institutions, national science and space agencies, leading technology firms, and global aerospace companies. This broad and deep partner network enables state-of-the-art results by supplying world-leading expertise in AI and domain science, combined with significant resources to find solutions at scale.
Our methods and processes
Our work is driven by the scientific method and guided by NASA’s technology readiness levels (TRLs). During the development cycle we conduct regular reviews with experts and potential end-users. This ensures the research stays on-target and delivers maximum impact, but also means that our partners gain a deep understanding of what is created.
We sincerely believe in the motto ‘better together’ - that collaboration and cooperation builds healthy knowledge ecosystems, creating opportunities for all. Our programs are built on large and diverse communities of experts who collaborate to produce open outcomes using transparent processes.
We don’t offer inscrutable ‘black boxes’. Instead we work with our partners to develop systems that explain the ‘how’ and ‘why’ of a result. We are keen on ‘explainable artificial intelligence’ as a building block of trusted systems that can be validated and audited for decision making.
