The Barcelona Institute of Science and Technology (BIST) and its participating centers are pleased to announce the organization of "From Science to Business", a hands-on workshop with 5x one-day on-site sessions on entrepreneurship in research, delivered in collaboration with ESADE Business School.
Presentation
From Science to Business (FS2B) will prepare participants to:
- Get acquainted with the business world and learn how companies create value for society and for themselves: providing more, better and healthier food, a cleaner, healthier and safer environment, and a better quality of life and wealth.
- Understand the framework within which companies work and how they create value in a competitive environment.
- Get a hands-on approach to the new venture creation process in the workshop session, and the role that science/technology plays in it.
- See that new venture creation needs scientists and engineers, and that entrepreneurship can be an attractive career path.
