If you have made new discoveries in your basic research and you are curious whether these new discoveries may be translated into products, processes or solutions that can improve current solutions, this course will give you some valuable insights. We will explore identifying excellent basic science with a potential for common use. It is not a course in the commercialisation process itself, but rather in changing from a research mind-set into a use mind-set and the elements that should be considered in this process.
These topics are included
- User-centric innovation
- Commercial value
- Sources of innovation funding and support
Expected learning outcomes
-
Understanding valorisation of research
-
Understanding elements to consider when putting your research to use
