Title | Accelerating Innovation from Research to Market | |
Description |
This project aims to provide an acceleration programme for scientists and researchers from King Abdul Aziz City for Science and Technology to initiate the commercialisation of their research. The acceleration programme is designed to empower Saudi and local academic scientists and researchers specialising in technology and emerging economy areas. It bridges the gap between research and the market through an innovation entrepreneurship programme. Participants will be equipped with skills and tools to explore the economic value of their research and embrace the commercialisation of innovative technologies. The programme will enable them to bring their ideas to market more efficiently and quickly by providing tools and techniques for opportunity assessment, customer development, and growth readiness. Tailored to the scientific community, the acceleration programme will apply tested and proven frameworks and models for technology-based commercialisation. |
