From the Bench to the Market: Part 1 - service beneficiaries only!

This webinar for wAF beneficiaries will comment the first stages in technology transfer-from TRL 2 to TRL6.

How to carry out a preliminary assessment of commercial interest. The Experimental Proof of Concept
Keeping the secret vs. Intellectual property protection
