Il corso si propone di sviluppare, in modo integrato e interdisciplinare, competenze individuali legate alla capacità di applicare i risultati della ricerca scientifica e tecnologica, indirizzandole verso la creazione di nuove iniziative imprenditoriali in grado di creare impatto sull'economia e sulla società. In particolare, il corso affronterà concetti e strumenti fondamentali per la valutazione del valore economico e del potenziale di mercato delle innovazioni tecnologiche legate collegate a brevetti e spinoff accademici. Gli studenti lavoreranno in team multidisciplinari composti da dottorandi di diversi dipartimenti su un caso di creazione di impresa reale basato su uno specifico brevetto di proprietà del Politecnico di Torino con il TRIN (ufficio di trasferimento tecnologico del Politecnico). Gli studenti apprenderanno le tecniche per la ricerca brevettuale e applicheranno metodi per la valutazione tecnologica basati sul data mining brevettuale. Inoltre, durante lo sviluppo del loro caso, gli studenti condurranno attività di ricerca per la raccolta e l'elaborazione di dati per valutare le caratteristiche del mercato finale e per supportare la pianificazione strategica della nuova impresa in collaborazione con il TRIN e gli inventori dei brevetti o accademici spinoff. Nello sviluppo del loro progetto, gli studenti beneficeranno dei feedback degli inventori dei brevetti. Ci sarà una presentazione intermedia per fornire feedback sull'avanzamento dei progetti. Gli studenti presenteranno i risultati finali dei loro progetti a un panel di professionisti che includerà imprenditori, business angels e investitori istituzionali di intermediari finanziari. Il corso è offerto in collaborazione con TRIN ed è aperto anche al dottorando coinvolto nel programma "Innovation for Change - I4C", che si sviluppa in collaborazione con CERN e con il CDI - College des Ingenieurs - Italia. Tali studenti non frequenteranno la seconda parte di questo corso, che sarà sostituita dalla partecipazione al programma I4C. Ulteriori informazioni su I4C 2021 saranno presto disponibili. Qui è possibile trovare una presentazione dell'anno scorso: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vgCHuxnees0. Gli studenti I4C saranno selezionati tra gli studenti di questo corso di dottorato in base alla loro domanda ed ad un colloquio.
The course aims to develop, in an integrated and interdisciplinary way, individual skills related to the ability to apply results of scientific and technological research, targeting them toward the creation of new business ventures able to create an impact on economy and society. In particular, the course will address fundamental concepts and tools for the assessment of the economic value and market potential of technological innovations related to patents and academic spinoffs. Students will work in multidisciplinary teams composed by PhD students from different departments on a real business creation case based on a specific patent owned by Politecnico di Torino with the TRIN (Politecnico Technollogy Transfer office). Students will learn techniques for patent searching and will apply methods for technology assessment based on patent data mining. Moreover, during the development of their case, the students will conduct research activities for the collection and elaboration of data to assess final market characteristics and to support the strategic planning of the new venture in collaboration with the TRIN e the inventors of the patents or academic spinoffs. In the development of their project, students will benefit from feedbacks from the inventors of the specific patents. There will be an intermediate presentation to provide feedback on the advancement of the projects. Students will present the final results of their projects to a panel of practitioners that will include entrepreneurs, business angels and institutional investors of financial intermediaries. The course is offered in collaboration with TRIN and it is open also to the PhD student involved in the Innovation for Change - I4C Program, that is developed in collaboration with CERN and CDI College des Ingenieurs - Italia. Such students will not attend the second part of this course, that will be substituted by the participation in the I4C program. More information on I4C 2021 will be available soon. Here it is possible to find a presentation from the last year: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vgCHuxnees0. I4C students will be selected among the students of this PhD course based on their application and with an interview.
