DEVELOPING NON-SCIENTIFIC SKILLS


NEWFELPRO beneficiaries will also have an opportunity to attend different workshops on topics such as technology transfer, commercialisation of scientific and professional research results and entrepreneurship.

Technology Transfer Office (TTO) of the University of Zagreb (http://technology.unizg.hr/tt/english) organizes wide range of educational workshops on intellectual property rights and technology transfer, entrepreneurial skills and writing project proposals. For NEWFELPRO beneficiaries one-day and two-day workshops on how to transform research results and knowledge into useful products, services or processes (workshop “From Knowledge to Innovation”), and on starting business based on knowledge and new technologies (workshop “Enterprise based on science and technology”) can be singled out. Workshops can be design to suit smaller or larger number of attendees, and they will be conducted in English or Croatian language, depending on lecturers.

Science and Technology Park (STeP Ri), University of Rijeka doo.  (http://www.step.uniri.hr/) is established having in mind the aims of commercialisation of scientific and professional research results, of giving impetus to collaboration of scientists and entrepreneurs, and of strengthening of science-based economy. STeP Ri is a partner of Enterprise Europe Network (EEN), and has a support of the Business Innovation Croatian Agency (BICRO), and it is taking part in entrepreneurial support network of Croatia. NEWFELPRO beneficiaries might find the following workshops interesting: effective ways of building a strategic plan (“Strategy on A4”), building new business models (“Innovation of business model”), creating new and improving the existing products and services (“Outcome Driven Innovation”), analysing processes of buying/selling and raising sale levels (“Selling Solutions”), acquiring insight into processes of access to building new business organization or changing the existing ones (“Business Organization and Human Resources Management).

Croatian Universities are organizing workshops for Transferable Skills Development on a regular basis. This opportunity will be available at all Croatian universities, if possible.
