From Science to Business will prepare participants to:
• Get acquainted with the business world and learn how companies create value for society and for themselves: providing more, better and healthier food, a cleaner, healthier and safer environment, and a better quality of life and wealth.
• Understand the framework within which companies work and how they create value in a competitive environment.
• Get a hands–on approach to the new venture creation process in the workshop session, and the role that science/technology plays in it.
• See that new venture creation needs scientists and engineers, and that entrepreneurship can be an attractive career path.
This course is designed to take place on–site at the ESADE premises to benefit from the face–to–face interaction and collaborative work with professors and participants.
Addressed to senior and postdoctoral researchers, staff and graduating doctoral students. Researchers from other institutions are also welcome upon request and subject to availability. You can address your requests by email to talent@bist.eu.
All participants will have to apply with a project to develop in mind.
All participants might need to present a project, but only a few of those projects will be selected to move forward during the course. The KTT teams from the BIST centres, together with ESADE representatives, will choose five projects to work with. Due to the nature of this course, all participants will need to contact the KTT representative of their BIST centre before registering in the course. If you are not from a BIST centre, please contact talent@bist.eu. Once we receive all the projects and participant applications, we will select the projects and create the final list of participants. For additional information about the general course procedures or the payment of fees, please contact your HR/Talent/Training unit at your research centre or send an email to talent@bist.eu.
