We are jointly organizing the seminar on "sciencepreneurship". This seminar is free of cost and open to all current Marie Curie fellows/Alumni and any researchers working at TU Wien. If you would like to join the seminar, please register using the google form.

Sciencepreneurship: research is done. What’s next?

Do you want to become a sciencepreneur? What does this mean? From traditional to new career paths in the academic world. This workshop will provide basics on how to bring research results and innovative ideas from the lab to the market by shedding a light onto the support you can receive not only recognizing the potential of your innovative research result but also with bringing it to the market. This introductory session will provide an overview of the support (content, services, funding) offered in the Austrian ecosystem and will walk you through the process of academic spin-out on the example of TU Wien.
