6th Conference of Skoltech Translational Research and Innovation Program, May 19-20, 2015

The 6th Conference of Skoltech Translational Research and Innovation Program will take place on May 19-20.

The Program was found to bridge the gap between laboratory and marketplace, and drive innovation and entrepreneurship in Russia. It provides critical support for participating teams to help establish proof of concept and provide assistance with advancing their technology towards commercialization, including pre-start up identification of high potential market opportunities, intellectual property management, and, if appropriate, team development.

The conference will include:

May 19: individual consultations of teams with their Russian and foreign mentors (catalysts). Commercialization strategy, marketing, and further development plans will be discussed.

May 20: presentations of teams from leading universities of Moscow and Saint Petersburg – participants of Program 2013-2014, as well as new Skoltech projects (potential participants of Program 2015-2016). Participation at this day is open for Skoltech scientists and students as well as their guests. Please, come in touch with Rustam Kagirov to register for the event ().

The event will take place at Renaissance Moscow Monarch Centre Hotel. The official language of the Conference: English
