The 6th ASTP- EU Forum continues the dialogue between European knowledge/technology transfer professionals and staff of the European Commission. At this free online event, the participants had the opportunity to hear directly from senior Commission staff working on initiatives which directly impact the innovation landscape: ERA Action 17, ResearchComp, and the EU "Patent Package".
In May 2022, over 160 knowledge transfer professionals from across Europe joined this meeting organised by ASTP's Europe Committee. Key speakers from European institutions to share and update the community on their current knowledge transfer related activities.
The Unit for Valorisation policies and IPR shared with us updates on the recently adopted policies and tools as well as the next developments in knowledge valorisation. The ERC presented the results of a new study revealing how frontier research spurs patented inventions. The EIC provided further insight on the Transition Open funding scheme and on the role of technology transfer to support funded projects. Finally, for the first time we hosted a representative of the unit in charge of innovation policy and access to finance who presented the New European Innovation Agenda. The Forum offers plenty of opportunities to stay up to date on the European policy context and to interact with policymakers and peers operating in the world of knowledge transfer!
In this webinar, Mauro Lattuada explored some practical issues about sharing software in Open Source in academia and the role of the TTOs relating to IP valorisation in connection to Open Source.
