Labs to Market

Labs to Market je vsakoletni program, ki povezuje raziskovalce, ki želijo svoje inovacije prenesti iz laboratorijev, delavnic in garaž na trg, s podjetniki, ki imajo izkušnje s poslovnim razvojem; kreativnimi posamezniki, ki želijo svoje spretnosti in znanje aplicirati na znanstvene in tehnološke inovacije; ter ambicioznimi študenti, ki želijo pridobiti praktične izkušnje pri soustvarjanju inovativnih rešitev.
