Project Maturation - CEBR and BioCT workshop
16 March 2010

Location: Berlin, Germany

Contact: korek@biotop.de

Register for this event CEBR and BioTOP, as part of the BioCT project, are very pleased to present the workshop ‘Project maturation’, taking place on March 16th in Berlin.

The workshop has the mission to create a foundation and targets for developing project maturation tools. This of course, is an ambitious target. Project maturation includes scouting, maturation and funding – all of which are difficult and which Europe still fails to deliver at a level that reflects the research undertaken.

This workshop is open and free of charge to all. It takes place as part of the wider Charité Biomedical Entrepreneurship Summit. (http://www.charite-summit.de/).

The agenda for the day is below and all delegates are requested to register through Wolfgang Korek on korek@biotop.de, with a summary of your own experience in project maturation, either as a full project within your biocommunity or a specific section such as funding tools.

Please complete the registration through this website and Wolfgang will contact you to confirm your attendance.
