The intellectual property and research underpinning the Magritek products comes from two decades of world leading magnetic resonance research carried out by director and founder Professor Sir Paul Callaghan and his team. Some of the challenges and opportunities that Magritek has worked through in generating a viable manufacturing and export driven business based in Wellington, New Zealand were presented at the conference.
