TII Training School: Capturing and Optimising Research Business Opportunities

The 2017 edition of the TII Training School is being held this October in Lyon/Villeurbanne, hosted by INSAVALOR, the research commercialisation office of INSA Lyon. It will give you the opportunity to sharpen your skills for capturing and optimising research business opportunities through practical, case-based workshops which are delivered by an international team of prominent innovation support and research commercialisation experts. We are proud to include for the first time in our line-up trainers from Australia and Singapore. And as the key to success in the tech transfer business is not just about what you know but who you know, the summer school also offers multiple opportunities for networking and experience exchange.

The programme of this year's course features:
Day 1: Preparing a Science-based Business (Part 1): Valuation Techniques and Intellectual Property Issues with Max Nielsen (DK) and Thomas Gering (USA/CH)
