On 30 September, the online “I UJI Event to Boost Creating Spin-Offs” will take place, promoted by the Vice-Rectorate of Research and Transfer of the Universitat Jaume I. This event is organized by Espaitec, the Science and Technology Park of the UJI, and is financed by the Valencian Innovation Agency (AVI) via its line of action for Supporting Innovative Entrepreneurship.
The objective of this virtual event, which forms part of the Tech2Business TECHNOLOGY, is for Universitat Jaume I (UJI) research staff to know about the possibilities offered by a Spin-Off being created. This business initiative is promoted by university community members, based on generated knowledge and research results.
The event's schedule
The event includes themes about the necessary proceedings to build your company, as well as the subsidies or administrative aid that your spin-off company has access to. In this part, Ismael Rodrigo, the Head of the The UJI Cooperation Office for Technological research and Development and Maria Jose Tomas, a technican from the Center for Industrial Technological Development (CDTI) will participate.
The Managing Director of Espaitec, Juan Antonio Bertolin, will share with those attending the different support programs to create companies that the park undertakes. This event will also be attended to by successful spin-off companies like Expander Tech (Jaume I University), bioinitiate (University of Valencia) and Iquarobotics (University of Girona). Representatives from all three firms will also share their experiences in the setting up, growth and development of their initiatives.
During the event, the “Rapid Guide” to create university spin-offs will be presented. This guide is for research (permanent and training) personnel to guide them about putting into practice a business project based on research results that aim to generate innovation.
