Access2EIC e-learning course now available on the HE NCP Portal Academy : Generating a Business from Research

EIC

The course " Generating Business from Research" is addressed to researchers, innovation managers, technology transfer professionals, and potential participants interested in EIC Transition and in the exploitation of research results through spin‑offs.

Having a promising research result does not necessarily mean that it can, or should, be transformed into a viable business. The objective of this course is to equip learners with a clear and practical framework to assess when launching a business makes sense and, equally importantly, when it does not.

The framework is built around three cascading questions:

  • Is it feasible?
  • Is it sustainable?
  • Is it scalable?

These questions are explored not only from a theoretical perspective, but also through practical examples, helping learners connect strategic reasoning with real‑world decision‑making. 

The ultimate goal is to enable learners to replicate this assessment process autonomously, apply it to the business ideas they are developing or supporting, and obtain a realistic and honest assessment of their commercial potential.

PBNv2 - a MSCA ITN in the field of automotive R&D

The Marie Skłodowska-Curie Action (MSCA) European Innovative Training Network “PBNv2 - Next generation Pass-By Noise approaches for new powertrain vehicles” started in May 2017. Their research has the shared objective of investigating the possibilities to decrease pass-by noise of vehicles.

The project is a collaboration between 17 research institutions and companies in the European automotive R&D and provides a learning environment for 14 PhD fellows. The Belgian partner is the Noise and Vibration Research Group of KU Leuven, and this project is one of the many Horizon 2020 MSCA Innovative Training Networks that the KU Leuven research group participates in.
