The CSIC Delegation in Catalonia is organising the 1st CSIC Alumni Gathering in Catalonia, an event open both to members of the CSIC Alumni network and to anyone interested in learning more about the programme and exploring the connections between science and business. The event will take place on Monday, 5 October, from 5:00 to 7:00 p.m., at the Residència d’Investigadors in Barcelona (c/ Carrer de l’Hospital, 64), located in the heart of the Raval neighbourhood.
The event will include a presentation of the CSIC Alumni programme and a conversation entitled “From Science to Business: Pathways, Opportunities and Challenges”, featuring Àngel Messeguer, retired researcher at IQAC-CSIC, and Antonio Parente Dueña, chemist, researcher and entrepreneur, and co-founder of several companies in the pharmaceutical and biotechnology sectors.
Drawing on their different career paths, the conversation will explore the connections between research and business, ways of turning scientific knowledge into innovation, and the opportunities and challenges that may arise along these journeys.
The event will provide an opportunity to connect with others, learn more about CSIC Alumni, and reflect on the opportunities and challenges that arise at the intersection of research and the business world.
The session will be moderated by Isabel Masip, from the CSIC Knowledge Transfer area.
