Research Group Commercialisation Workshops (Physical Sciences)
Can you explain why your research is worth someone’s attention in just under 5 minutes? Do you want to be more involved in the commercialisation process and understand how your own research can create impact in today’s society? We can deliver tailored workshops for any research group at the University of Cambridge to help you explain the relevance and impact of your research to your peers, discuss commercialisation routes and processes and even have a go at pitching your idea to the rest of the group! We recently had a fun session with the Knowles Lab at St Johns College, where we really delved into what makes a good problem to solve, discussed techniques on how best to find out who your competitors are and took a look into the market opportunities of these ideas. Mini pitches were prepared and a lot of fun, discussion and ideas for the future were brought to light!
