Welcome to Life Science Solutions: from Research to Business
Type:
Inspiration Event
Background:
AAU Innovation is hosting inspirational events for researchers. Each event focuses on commercialising ideas from research, and the events are themed. However, you can participate even if the theme is not specifically relevant for you.
The theme for September 2019 is Life Sciences.
Description:
The purpose of the event is to inspire PhD. students, postdocs and faculty staff into commercialising ideas from research. Commercialising is not necessarily a matter of creating new start-ups, but also includes implementing new processes in e.g. the public sector.
A researcher does not necessarily have to create a new start-up, but might collaborate with students or external actors and together make it real.
This event includes short inspirational talks from different researchers who have been able to find practical applications of ideas derived from research. The participants of the event have an opportunity to explore the different pathways of entrepreneurship, interact with those that have experiences as well as meet the supporting staff at AAU who are ready to assist in such endeavours.
AAU hosts different events, workshops and activities, where participants can explore opportunities in entrepreneurship.
