Turning research into real-world impact often hinges on finding the right industry partner, the right person who could champion the collaboration, the right messaging to spark interest.
In this practical tutorial, Arne Smolders (Founder & CEO of AcademicLabs) will demonstrate how researchers, TTOs and spinoffs can use AI-powered scientific intelligence to move from an idea to a concrete collaboration opportunity in 1 minute.
The session will cover how you can start from a publication abstract, project idea or tech offer and:
– find relevant companies
– evaluate a company for how strong of a partnering fit
– position optimally for a partnership
– use strategic messaging
– find the right scientific champion to engage with
– generate a company landscape report to assess dozens of potential partners at once
This tutorial gives academics, TTOs and spinoffs actionable workflows to accelerate academia–industry partnerships and ensure promising ideas connect with the right partners to achieve real-world impact.
