ASTP Annual Conference, Best Practices in Transfer of Science and Technology, 28 & 29 May 2009 - Ghent, Belgium
- an introductory track that focuses on ‘Spinning out’, with special attention to when (not) to create a spin-off, the business plan, raising capital and shareholder agreements, also through workshops
- a series of sessions focusing on our interactions with the various players in the tech transfer ecosystem: the researchers, the university government, industry, and politics/government officials: what does each of them want from us, and how to live up to all the different expectations?
- a track on ‘Challenges in technology transfer’, focussing on the various aspects we come across every day: valutation of technologies, what about Arts & Humanities, proof-of-concept schemes revaluated, valorization of tissue- and databanks, and post deal follow-up.
Besides the regular conference program, we also offer a social program on Wednesday afternoon and Thursday evening.
