📅 Save the date! FEI: Front End of Innovation is coming in June 2024! 🚀 Get ready for an amazing conference with top-notch speakers and insightful sessions. Follow us on social for all the latest updates! 🎉 See you in Boston! 🏙️ #FEI24 #InnovationConference #SaveTheDate

The InnoNation Festival is upcoming. And like last year, we can use this occasion to present the new results of the Innovationsindikator 2024. Have you become interested? Registrations are possible here: https://lnkd.in/eVPreEQP I am looking forward to my participation as a panellist in the session "Innovationsindikator - Learnings und Transfer in die Praxis": Germany is under pressure: new and old competitors are changing their strategies, but can the science and innovation system react quickly enough to take transfer to a new level and can companies in Germany bring enough profitable new products and business models to the market and to customers? Research-innovation-growth-prosperity - have we laid the right foundations or do we need to speed up innovation to survive in an intensifying global technology competition? I am really excited to discuss these and other questions with expert colleagues from industry, science and policy.

The intersection of innovation and intellectual property is vital for a thriving global economy. Join us in exploring the insightful keynote by Andrei Iancu at CIP FORUM 2023. The keynote highlighted the significance of intellectual property in driving innovation and its historical impact. The clash between Edison and Westinghouse, the complexity of standard essential patents, and the current policy considerations for COVID-19 diagnostics and therapeutics were thought-provoking. The discussion also emphasized the need for diversity in innovation and legislative actions to restore the patent system. Furthermore, the importance of a reinforced IP system for future technological advancements was underscored. Let's delve deeper into these crucial discussions. Share your thoughts on how intellectual property impacts innovation and join the conversation on the path forward.

📢 A brief interview of the President of the Board of the European Innovation Council Michiel Scheffer was released on our website! Many topics were discussed: What lessons can be drawn from Europe’s past efforts to build R&I ecosystems to enhance prospects for a deep tech equivalent ❓ Which key 🗝new conditions and mechanisms – e.g., regulatory, financial, programming, etc – will be needed to foster the next generation of deep tech innovators and companies ❓ The first meeting of the new EIC Board took place on 📆 January 2024 in Leuven. Which are the priorities for the Board’s work in 2024, in particular with reference to the implementation of the EIC in the 2nd half of the programme ❓ The WP 2024 faces new intellectual 💡 property rules that no longer grant full rights solely to the so-called EIC inventor. What can you tell us about this ❓ Can you give 3️⃣ suggestions to EIC applicants ❓ Find all the answers here 👉 : https://lnkd.in/dtvmuhMb #EIC #Access2EIC #Insights #Innovation

As ex-entrepreneur in digital tech, I was very pleased to share the stage with my colleague Moe Ba, ITU innovation expert, for this first Live Q&A, this time on digital innovation for sustainable development. What topic would you like to be discussed in another Q&A with an ITU expert? Put your favorite in the comments below. Some highlights from the recording below of our first Live Q&A: - Digital innovation is a productivity gainer (tech is not a root cause of change; tech is there to help you do a job) - Top 3 industries globally that urgently require sustainable development supported by tech: energy, transportation, construction - Make your small piece of the pie a big pie through collaboration to get complementary resources, opportunities and capabilities to drive digital innovation together (to mitigate silos in today’s specialized economy); no one can get innovative products to market alone - Policy needs to be agile to adapt to rapidly changing technology and provide support to innovators early in their journey; 90% of SMEs fail because they cannot figure out the right business model and collaboration with partners, including the private sector, to go beyond prototype #WTISD #InnovateForProsperity #innovation
