Research to Business

  • Certificate Training
  • Coordinated by Dr. Mikael Syväjärvi
  • Training runs continuously (training circle)
  • Benefit by impact to own case
  • Individual feedback
  • Register any time at Institute of Advanced Materials

Details of Training Plan:

There are many unknown factors for research to business and no recipes. It will not happen fast. We will need to create own capacity to facilitate how our research can come to next level. We can build our capacity by sharing experiences, examples and create knowledge transfer. This is the training activity.

Training Plan:

Attend the transfer of knowledge (ToK) sessions and make research impact assignment. The training program is 6 months (Feb-Aug and Aug-Feb). Then next program starts. Anyone can enter at any time and complete training by following the training circle. For example, come in at month 4 and follow 3 months in next part of training circle.

First start: Mid August

Training circle. 6 months program Feb-Aug and Aug-Feb but one can enter at any time.

10 ToK sessions per training program. At each session there is a focus topic. Topic is discussed at end of session. These serve as exercises to understand the general principle of business from research cases. Participants are expected to be active.

Each participant will have their specific Research impact assignment. This is taken from your own case. You will describe this and build a research towards business roadmap. Each participant will get support and feedback by the lecturer and experts. It will act to build experience in describing potential business roadmap and impact from your research.
