This event will offer valuable insights into the entrepreneurial journeys of successful researchers and provide a great opportunity to network with founders, experts, and peers in an informal setting.

Why attend?

Many groundbreaking ideas are born in research, but only a few are successfully transformed into thriving businesses. Often, researchers lack knowledge about technology transfer, commercialization, and the support systems available. This evening will demonstrate that pursuing a Doctorate and founding a startup are not mutually exclusive — they can complement and strengthen each other.

Agenda:

  • Welcome & Introduction
  • Motivation to Start a Business
  • The Journey: From Idea to Startup
  • Startup Ecosystem Overview
  • Networking with free refreshments

 

Grab a seat


We look forward to an inspiring and engaging event with you!

Best regards,

Elke Feifel (Vice President Sustainability, Transfer and Entrepreneurship)

Christian Facchi (Head of Doctoral School)
