27th, 28th September/2011 LHospitalet de Llobregat (Barcelona)

Organized by Consorci Biopol de LHospitalet and Fundacin Barri

The Fundacin Barri with ISIS Innovation initiated a training programme in technology transfer that was initiated in 2010 which consisted of a series of three different courses and a secondment at ISIS Innovation in Oxford. With the common interest in promoting technology transfer and entrepreneurship as a way to foster the economy, BiopolH and Fundacin Barri have achieved an agreement to organize, under the leadership of ISIS Innovation, the third edition of the Introduction to Technology Transfer course in Barcelona, building on the experience of the two previous editions held in A Corua. BiopolH considers this training course as a first step, and intends in a near future, to cover the different aspects of tech transfer, including the topics of licensing and creating a spinout. BiopolH is a biomedical cluster of health care facilities, knowledge-generating institutions, and research centers from the life sciences and health sectors, in a physical environment. The cluster includes, among others, the University Hospital of Bellvitge, the Catalan Institute of Oncology (ICO) - Hospital Duran i Reynals, the Bellvitge Institute for Biomedical Research (IDIBELL), the Health Sciences Campus of Bellvitge of the University of Barcelona, and the future Biopol Health Science Park. BiopolH, which is based within the municipality of LHospitalet de Llobregat, aims to attract new companies, and create spinouts by offering quality in health research and a comprehensive network of services. The Foundation Barri is a private foundation devoted to promoting the development of Galicia. The foundation is active in the areas of education, research, culture and social work.
