The INNOBridge RVP is designed to empower researchers and their teams by enhancing the technological readiness and market potential of their projects. This initiative serves as a catalyst for transforming groundbreaking academic research into practical, market-oriented solutions. Our programme focuses on: i) Technology Transfer: supporting the transition of innovative ideas from the lab to the marketplace by providing expertise, tools, and resources necessary for successful technology commercialisation. ii) Market Readiness: assisting researchers in assessing market needs, refining their value propositions, and aligning their innovations with industry standards and customer demands. iii) Access to Innovation Funding: guiding participants in leveraging innovation funds to test and validate their ideas, ensuring the feasibility and scalability of their projects. By fostering a culture of entrepreneurship and collaboration between academia and industry, the programme enables the commercialisation of new technologies and services developed within the university. This not only drives economic growth but also amplifies the societal impact of research, creating a bridge between innovation and real-world applications. Through this programme, we aim to inspire and equip researchers to take their work beyond academia, opening pathways to innovation, sustainability, and global competitiveness.
The service is offered free of charge.
This programme is open continuously. We organise cohorts based on the number of applications and on regional universities' needs.
