Could your research lead to something with commercial potential? What opportunities could collaboration with companies offer? How can you protect your research results? Where can you find funding to develop a research or business idea? How can you find suitable industry partners? And how can you support students in developing their own business ideas or building connections with companies?
If these questions sound relevant to your faculty or unit, invite the Innovation Centre experts for a visit! We help researchers with the commercialisation of research results and intellectual property rights, identifying business potential and developing business ideas, applying for Business Finland research funding, and building collaboration networks with companies. We also support entrepreneurial-minded students in taking their ideas forward and help develop work-life collaboration.
If your faculty or unit would like to learn more about these topics, we would be happy to come and introduce ourselves, tell you more about our services, and discuss any questions you may have.
