From the end of February, the new innovation unit at the University of Oslo – the Life Science Growth House – will be an open door for researchers and students who need help to mature ideas at an early stage; leaders and administrative employees who support the innovative researchers; and existing and new external collaborators. At this launch seminar we gather the whole innovation ecosystem in life sciences in Oslo.

The Life Science Growth House will challenge culture and thinking, bring forward more innovators and start-up companies and stimulate more knowledge being put into use.

At this event we will present our services and funding opportunities and how we will collaborate with departments at the University of Oslo, Oslo University Hospital and Akershus University Hospital as well the technology transfer office Inven2, clusters, incubators, industry and the partners in Oslo Science City to succeed.

You will also get to hear what experienced innovators from the University of Oslo think it takes to succeed to put more research into use.

A panel with representatives from different parts of the innovation ecosystem will discuss what it takes to improve the dialog and collaboration between academia and industry. How do we facilitate that international life science industry establishes activity in Oslo and Oslo Science City? What actions should the Life Science Growth House take?
