DRS ProTransfer^online

DRS Pro Transfer provides the tools to transform a great idea into a product or service. Based on procedures like ideation, product and service design, as well as business model innovation, you learn about methods to evaluate the marketability of your research or business idea. We will jointly develop and test your ideas – and inform about ways of protecting your most important resource: your intellectual property.

Interested? DRS Pro Transfer is open for (advanced) doctoral and postdoctoral researchers of the Berlin University Alliance and partners of the p2i Network. We would especially like to encourage interested researchers from the Humanities and Social Sciences – you made up a quarter of participants in previous years so there is room for growth!

Whether you have a concrete idea or not – this is a hands-on course where you learn methods for research-based businesses and organizations in an interdisciplinary team. Communicating your concepts concisely is important – not only in academia, but especially in business. Therefore, in addition to modules in business knowledge and methods, you will also attend a pitch training. Mentors and moderators will accompany you all the way, and you will not only meet fellow researchers.

This course is made specifically for researchers and scientists. Furthermore, we provide you articulated support for submitting a research-based idea to business competitions, such as the Research to Market Challenge.
