WORKSHOP II - "Innovation Fast Track - From Academia
to People"
Academia is a privileged nest of knowledge, science, and novelties, generated by people willing to create an impact on society. But, a considerable part of this knowledge does not impact people as often and fast as desirable. This workshop will search for the challenges, missing links, and cultural issues to leverage a new level of understanding and, therefore, new strategies to overcome these aspects and to design fast tracks from academia to people.
