Say you have a new idea – what you think may be a good way to treat a disease, generate cheap energy, or collaborate on-line. How do you get the idea into the marketplace?
Start your own company, has been the answer over the past decade for a growing number of European researchers.
To celebrate these researchers-turned-entrepreneurs, on 2 December in Stockholm the Science|Business Innovation Board, a blue-ribbon panel of leaders in industry, academia and policy, will pick the winners of the first pan-European awards for university enterprise. At a conference and awards ceremony, the week before the Nobel Prizes are awarded there, the ACES Academic Enterprise Awards will be presented to winners in six categories, by dignitaries including Odile Quintin, the European Union’s Director-General for Education and Culture.

ESOF2008 for Business – From Lab to Market
21 July 2008 – 8:30 to 18:00
New ways to bridge the gap between industry and academia
The marketplace for science and technology is vast, fast-growing and complex. It cuts across all borders, between countries, industries and scientific disciplines. It involves many skills: corporate R&D managers, academic researchers, technology transfer officers, IP specialists, venture capitalists and policy-makers. And for success, what counts is what you know, and whom you know.
The “ESOF2008 for Business – From Lab to Market” programme is a series of engaging panel discussions, targeted at executives managing science & technology innovation within large corporations and medium businesses throughout Europe. This is your chance to discuss what it takes to grow your business by identifying, developing and securing innovative technologies. Join thousands of the best scientists and entrepreneurs and discuss your innovation agenda.
