Training: Innovation Journey

The Innovation Journey is a training program in technology transfer thought and designed for BSC researchers willing to unleash their inner entrepreneur and acquire the tools to bring their technologies into the market.

Welcome on board of the Innovation Journey!

In this adventurous trip, one can surf the waves of the process of bringing ideas from research centres to the private sphere and vice versa. Thus, we propose a journey across the phases of development of a technology-transfer project: through a travel guide in the format of several workshops.

In the first edition, we had the chance to gather 10 brilliant and passionate BSC researchers to enjoy exchanging ideas and learning through interactive seminars and workshops by established experts and successful entrepreneurs’ real journeys. And in this sense, since we know you love data, let's bring in some:

5/10 BSC-CNS spin-offs were created in the past year.
3 BSC-CNS spin-offs were successfully constituted after participating in the last edition of the innovation Journey.

The transfer of technology developed inside the research centres to society and the private sector is becoming a reality. It allows scientists to develop and exploit their discoveries in a more independent and challenging, but also fruitful way. And it also allows the private market to benefit from technological solutions being developed in public research centres.

That is why in the second edition, not only will the cohort of researchers benefit from a series of sessions on engaging in entrepreneurial ventures but will be joined by a cohort of businesses that are on the path of implementing HPC solutions in their projects.

Together, they will create a space of ideas, projections and solutions from which everyone will develop a joint mindset that unites research and the private market.
