Science-to-Business Conferences

One of the central goals of ICST is to provide an innovative forum for exchanging ideas and presenting business opportunities related to the areas of technology transfer and innovation. ICST aims to create such a platform through its independent business oriented events, the S/B2B conferences, with the specific mission of bringing together experts from academic, industrial and governmental sectors. S/B2B conferences put special emphasis on transferring innovative ideas from research to business communities, promoting interaction between scientific and regulatory sectors and transforming theoretical ideas into concrete products and applications.

S/B2B conferences feature program elements that cover the entire innovation timeline spectrum starting with the presentation of related technology fundamentals and ideas and ending with the demonstration of concrete products and applications. The process of innovation consists of multiple developmental phases and is directly linked to several different types of activities, such as market analysis, research execution, prototype development, technology transfer, product testing, etc. S/B2B conferences offer a venue of interaction for a wide array of technology, financial, business, regulatory, academic and research communities.

S/B2B Conferences are independent events consisting of multiple different tracks:

  1. The Position Paper Track features short business/industry oriented position papers selected on the bases of technology relevance, innovative edge, business approach and practical applicability.
  2. The Exhibition and Demo Track represents an opportunity for companies to showcase their ideas, products and services to a relevant audience.
  3. The Business Presentation Track is designed for invited presentations delivered by company executives, industry advocates, government officials and R&D experts.
  4. The Product Review Track provides a platform for vendors and service providers to present, introduce, or test their products or services and to receive feedback from the community.
  5. The Entrepreneurial Forum offers entrepreneurs, inventors, investors and professional advisors a chance to learn about current entrepreneurial opportunities and principles from around the world.
