TUW i²c Networking Friday

Event Details

TU Wien is the source of Deep Tech innovation in Austria. With the annual i²c Networking Friday – a conference dedicated to entrepreneurship as third mission of a university – TU Wien not only showcases TU Wien innovations and spin-outs but also brings together scientists, representatives from industry and politics, public and private investors, entrepreneurs and entrepreneurial interested.

What has been an on-site event for 6 years is now transferred to an online event in 2021 considering all rules and regulations that come along with COVID in our daily life.

WHAT TO EXPECT:

This year’s panel discussion will focus on “Spin-outs as the 3rd mission of Universities: Motivation, Obstacles, and Perspectives”. The panel will be in German language. We are looking forward to an interesting and controversial discussion with:

• DI Michael Altrichter, Startup-Beauftragter des Bundesministeriums für Digitalisierung und Wirtschaftsstandort,
• Mag. Marlis Baurecht – Entrepreneurship/Schutzrechte/Seedförderungen, aws
• Univ. Prof. Dr. Ulrich Frank – Lehrstuhlinhaber Wirtschaftsinformatik und Unternehmensmodellierung, Universität Duisburg-Essen
• Priv. Doz. Dr. Sara Matt – Leitung Transferstelle Wissenschaft-Wirtschaft-Gesellschaft, Universität Innsbruck
• Dr. Wieland Reichelt – CEO Evologic Technologies

9 TU Wien research projects with a high market potential introducing how they plan to revolutionize their industries with their innovations

12 academic spin-outs and start-ups supported by the TUW i²ncubator exhibiting virtually their innovations

The option to meet and mingle with the sciencepreneurs and conference participants (inter-/national investors/VCs, industry experts, and other players in the entrepreneurial ecosystem) facilitated via 1:1 meetings
