SUMMARY:#EoI - Leveraging Megatrends and Systems Thinking
DESCRIPTION:Join this Masterclass and learn new methods to position your research work within broader trends. \n\n\n\n\n\nMegatrend mapping and systems thinking are powerful tools that enable scientists to anticipate changes\, spot emerging opportunities\, and navigate the complex interconnections that shape their fields. These methods help researchers position their work within broader trends\, giving them an edge in adapting to future challenges. In this interactive workshop\, we will explore how understanding megatrends and thinking in systems can open up new possibilities in your specific area of research. You will learn to map the wider context of your field\, uncover key influences and connections\, and identify strategic opportunities to drive positive change through your work —rather than simply assuming there is one path-dependent future that will unfold regardless. \nAfter completing this workshop\, you will: \n🔭 Know how to use the megatrend map to anticipate changes and opportunities in your scientific field. \n🫆 Have a more holistic understanding of your research area by adopting a systems-thinking view of key actors\, resources\, and interconnections. \n✍️ Identify actionable approaches to innovate within your discipline by leveraging interconnections with the broader system\, enabling you to shape future outcomes. \nAbout the speaker \nValerie-Sophie Schoenberg works at the intersection of innovation\, entrepreneurship and sustainability\, with expertise in circular economy strategies and systemic organizational development. As owner of Schönberg Consulting\, she advises startups\, accompanies processes and manages projects for companies of all sizes and the public sector. To scale her impact\, she is Member of the Board of Member of the Circular Economy Forum Austria and teaches in academic programs in Austria and Germany.

SUMMARY:#E4s - From Research to Market in 5 Steps
DESCRIPTION:Join this Masterclass and learn a structured approach to bring your research into market. \n\n\n\n\n\nYou’ve done the research\, and you think it could matter outside the lab. But how do you actually get it there?\n  \nYou’ve done the research\, and you think it could matter outside the lab. But how do you actually get it there? \nThis is the gap that a lot of great research doesn’t cross. Sure\, the science behind your project / product is great! But then\, the path from a working prototype to a working business has its own rules. \nThis hands-on 4-hour workshop gives a practical 5-step approach for bringing research into the real world. It’s built specifically for a deep-tech and research context (think long timelines\, regulated buyers\, complex procurement\, early-stage uncertainty)\, not for the consumer-app playbook you’ll find in most online-startup content. \nEach of the five step combines a short input with a hands-on exercise. You can apply each of these to your own project\, or to a prepared case study if you’d rather not share your idea in the room. \nImportant: \n*During the event\, photographic and video material will be taken. Please inform the i²c team at the venue in case you do not agree with appearing in this material. The photographic and video material taken at the event will be used by i²c in printed and electronic media for promotional purposes.
