From Idea to Start-up: Self-driving Cars and Portable Sequencing
DESCRIPTION
In the second edition of our “From Idea to Start-up” series, you will hear from two established science entrepreneurs who will share their exciting stories on developing self-driving smart cars and portable sequencing devices (MinIon). They will also bring their valuable experience on how to navigate the path from academia to business. Join us for a chance to gain valuable insights from their talks, to discuss your thoughts on building start-ups, and to meet students and staff from all over the university who share the same interest.

There will be a networking & drinks reception after the event

As always, this event is free and everyone is welcome!
