Digital Innovations SIG: World Lunch #9

In this webinar Sjaak Brinkkemper presents his vision on entrepreneurship in ecosystems: starting a software company is relatively easy, but continuing the enterprise in a solid and sustainable manner is extremely difficult. He investigates decision making on software production: product roadmapping, product/service duality, customer involvement, productisation, and internationalisation. He also pays attention to the role of the Knowledge Transfer Office in the ecosystem in a very early stage.

Digital Innovations SIG: World Lunch #8

Brechtje Vreenegoor is manager of the KTO Wageningen University and Research. She discussed ‘servitisation’ of open-source models. Numerous models are being valorised in different ways, but it is difficult to advise researchers on what they should do. Why does something work one time and not another? And do we even know what works: how do we determine success?

Tea with ASTP: Creation of IP Policy

In this Tea with ASTP, Relika Williams and Christophe Haunold were joined by other guests to share their experiences around creating, approving and executing IP management policy for universities. Three different perspectives: from a drafting point of view, an approval / feedback collection, and execution of a long standing policy. Why do we need it? What are the ingredients of a good policy? How to implement, approve and promote it?

Digital Innovations SIG: World Lunch #7

A few years ago, the Max Planck Society introduced a partially standardised licensing model for spin-offs. The model includes a 10% stake of Max Planck in the companies and, in some cases, milestone payments or royalties. The model has proved to be successful in most cases. Only in the start-up projects, which are solely based on software code the model was sometimes considered unfair by the founders. The Max Planck Society has since then revised the model for these special technologies again.

Digital Innovations SIG: World Lunch #6

With Laura Spinardi, Head of Technology Transfer Office, Fondazione IRCCS Ca' Granda Ospedale Maggiore Policlinico di Milano, we discussed the challenges of managing data in digital clinical research: not just the privacy/personal data issues, but also data management and data sharing within collaborative research projects, using data for machine learning and training, and the ease or difficulty of transferring data in licensing and spin out opportunities.
