Op dinsdag 28 juni leggen de experts van BDO en EP&C u graag uit hoe u het maximale rendement uit uw innovatie haalt. In een kosteloze workshop krijgt u een uniek en compleet overzicht van de kansen en mogelijkheden die innovatie biedt aan slimme ondernemers. U kunt deze sessie fysiek of online volgen. Meld u via onderstaande button direct aan om zeker te zijn van een beschikbare plek.

De waarde van innovatie

Innovatieve en creatieve ideeën zijn waardevol. Ze vormen het hart van veel ondernemingen en daarom is het essentieel om ze goed te beschermen. En ze zijn een belangrijke drijfveer achter onze economie. Dat ziet de Nederlandse overheid ook en daarom bieden zij verschillende stimuleringsmaatregelen voor innovaties aan.

Programma

Tijdens dit hybride event nemen we u mee in de wereld van intellectueel eigendom (IE) en aanverwante rechten. Daarnaast besteden we uitvoerig aandacht aan de stimuleringsmaatregelen van de overheid. We bespreken onder andere:

Welke vormen van IE er zijn
Hoe u deze rechten inzet om uw innovaties te beschermen
Hoe het aanvragen van een octrooi in zijn werk gaat
Welke rol octrooien spelen bij uw aanvraag voor innovatiesubsidies
Hoe u gebruik maakt van de Wet bevordering speur- en ontwikkelingswerk (WBSO)
Op welke manier u belastingvrijstelling via de innovatiebox kunt behalen
Welke stappen u kunt zetten om uw IE ook bedrijfsrechtelijk en fiscaal veilig te stellen

SMB-meeting; Patient-driven innovation

Healthcare is a peoples business. Keeping the patient not just in the center of the attention of innovation but also as a co-driver in your development process of is of paramount importance. But still, all too often businesses forget to involve patients in the core of their innovations and pay for this mistake in the end.

Our SMB meeting of May 19 focuses on some best practices on how to involve patients.

First speaker is Erik Verkaar from Zorgbelang, an organisation helping others to involve patients in their processes. Not just how to deal with empowered patients but also patients with low health and literacy capabilities. Our second speaker, Chris van den Brink, is patient ambassador for Enzyre. Enzyre develops near patient diagnostics for blood coagulation. Chris will talk about the importance of developing from the perspective of how the patient will use the technology in real live. And last but not least, Concha van Rijssel will talk about how Radboudumc Innovation Labs has created an innovation process really incorporating the involvement of the patient view.

For those interested, we will conclude the event with networking, drinks & bites.

Live event
This event will be organized in a live setting at Novio Tech Campus in Nijmegen (building M, Mee&Greet area). A few days before the event we will send an email with practical information on directions/parking (sender = smb@radboudumc.nl). You might have to check your spam box.
