Background

Pyksis is derived from the Greek name ‘Pyxis’ for the Mariners’ Star which provides the guidance in traversing unchartered waters. We have adopted this symbol to epitomise the assistance that Pyksis provides to its client companies on their journey to success.  We work with innovative SMEs, corporates, government and government agencies to take Australian innovations to the national and international marketplace. We specialise in assisting fast-growth opportunities irrespective of the technology field.
