Project number: IVPP-EM-Innovation-2024/1-0002. 29. oktobrī “BioPhoT” konference Latvijas Universitātes(LU) Zinātņu mājā pulcēs pētniekus, uzņēmējus, industrijas pārstāvjus, investorus un politikas veidotājus. Konferences mērķis ir iezīmēt “BioPhoT” inovāciju projektu sasniegumus un nākamos attīstības soļus, kā arī diskutēt par to, kā zinātnisko izcilību pārvērst inovācijās ar globālu potenciālu. Viens no konferences centrālajiem tematiem būs tehnoloģiju attīstības ceļš no laboratorijas līdz tirgum, aplūkojot būtiskākos izaicinājumus un iespējas tehnoloģiju komercializācijā. Dienas programmā paredzētas diskusijas par “BioPhoT” platformas atbalstīto inovāciju projektu sasniegumiem un gūtajām atziņām, kā arī par zinātnes un industrijas sadarbību Latvijā. Paneļdiskusijās īpaša uzmanība tiks pievērsta būtiskākajiem posmiem un izaicinājumiem, ar kuriem pētnieki un komandas saskaras, pārnesot zinātniskās idejas industrijā un tirgū. Apmeklētāji klātienē varēs iepazīt līdz šim platformas projektu ietvaros izstrādātos prototipus, to praktisko pielietojumu un attīstības potenciālu, kā arī uzzināt par iespējām veidot sadarbību ar zinātnieku komandām. Īpaša vieta konferencē būs atvēlēta “BioPhoT” programmas komandu izstrādāto tehnoloģiju ekspozīcijai.
