How can path breaking scientific R&D contribute to creating a thriving, sustainable innovation ecosystem? How to connect science, business and innovation?
Aalto and ESADE, on behalf of the ATTRACT Consortium (http://www.attract-eu.org/) organize a dedicated workshop to explore the above questions, in its efforts to find resources to contribute to new breakthrough innovation.
Symposium Scope
The scope is on European Research Infrastructures (ERIs) working on scientific instrumentation and collaborating with their partners (universities, research labs, industry). Given their scientific nature and long project life cycles, they provide a fertile ground for path breaking innovation. But how to connect exploratory research with immediate or shorter term societal needs?
Symposium Focus
The focus of the symposium is the use of design-thinking inspired education and business tools in international scientific environment, engaging cross-disciplinary MSc-level student teams.
The Challenge
The Symposium Format
