But...

In order to also encourage researchers and PhD students to evaluate the commercial potential of your research, we organize a special category for you.

The winner will be awarded with 5 000 SEK. But more importantly, everyone that competes will get a personal contact in the innovation system that can help them with the commercialization of their project. This is also a perfect first step towards a participation in Venture Cup 2011-2012.

This competition is organized in cooperation with:
