Exploitation of innovation from academia
Einstein ABC Room
9:30 am to 9:50 am
With the quality of Belgium academic research groups, there is no wonder very innovative start ups found their origin as spin offs of universities.
Through this panel session, we will see some examples of how academic research can lead to practical applications in the field thanks to the intervention of two entrepreneurs and technology transfer office representatives of two universities.
Together, we will reflect on how to further encourage and accelerate the emergence of innovative spin offs and how to best support them at a very early stage, when it comes to IP protection, financing or defining the business case.
