How to transfer your research? New training to ensure its impact on the market and society

The new training, organised jointly by the H2CAT network and the AccessCat Network, combines preparatory work, practical sessions, and interaction with proven methodologies to help researchers explore how to identify and define real problems, validate potential solutions, and start building a business model. The ultimate goal? To foster an impact-oriented mindset and prepare researchers to develop projects that can be transferred to the market or society.

The training will take place on 14 and 17 July, from 12:00 to 14:00, and is exclusively for researchers from the H2CAT and AccessCat networks.
