Following the success of its first training session, the BIOTIN Project continued its mission to equip fellows and external participants with essential skills by hosting a Technology Transfer Training on 3 February 2025. Conducted on Microsoft Teams, this insightful session was led by Dr. Volkan ÖZGÜZ from Boğaziçi University Bright, bringing together aspiring innovators and researchers eager to transform their ideas into real-world solutions.
Technology transfer is the bridge between innovation and application—an essential step for those looking to bring their scientific discoveries or business concepts to life. Throughout the session, Dr. Volkan ÖZGÜZ, a seasoned expert in the field, provided valuable insights into how cutting-edge ideas can be transferred into market-ready technologies. Participants explored key strategies for turning research into viable startups, securing intellectual property, and navigating the complex world of entrepreneurship.
The training emphasized practical steps in the commercialization process, helping participants understand the challenges and opportunities in bringing an idea from the lab to the marketplace. Fellows from the BIOTIN Project, already engaged in pioneering research, gained crucial knowledge on how to bridge the gap between scientific innovation and business application. Meanwhile, external participants from diverse backgrounds learned how to strategically develop and pitch their ideas for real-world impact.
This session was a pivotal moment in the BIOTIN Project’s training series, reinforcing its commitment to fostering an ecosystem where innovation meets entrepreneurship. With knowledge gained from this training, participants are now better prepared to take their ideas to the next level—whether in academia, industry, or their own entrepreneurial ventures.
