DESCRIPTION:Join this Masterclass and learn how to build a commercially successfull product/service out of your research. \nMost researchers excel at discovery but receive little guidance on commercialisation pathways\, regulatory navigation\, or the creative leaps required to build a company. That is why TU Wien’s i²c incubator has organised the Masterclass “Translating Research into a Business Model”. \nDrawing on extensive experience in technology transfer\, deep-tech venture building and institutional investing\, this session equips participants with practical frameworks for thinking outside the conventional academic box\, mapping the essential steps from lab to market\, and anticipating the regulatory landscape that shapes spin-offs in AI\, biotech\, health-tech and related fields. \nKey Takeaways \n    How to reframe research results into commercially attractive value propositions and spin-off concepts\n    The critical steps from idea validation and IP strategy through company formation\, funding and launch readiness\n    Key European regulations and compliance considerations that founders must address early\n    Practical approaches to governance\, capital structure and go-to-market planning for deep-tech ventures \nBy combining hands-on expertise in technology transfer\, entrepreneurship and venture capital\, it offers researchers a comprehensive toolkit to bridge the gap between scientific excellence and successful commercialisation. \nAbout the speaker \nDr. Astrid Woollard\, MSc\, LLM is a business builder and operator with end-to-end experience across AI\, blockchain\, robotics\, biotech and institutional investing.
