ProgrammesThe 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:
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.

Founded in 1999, Luciad serves clients in Europe, Asia and the Americas. Though it recently was acquired by Hexagon Geospatial, they kept an agile SME mindset. Thousands of end users work directly with Luciad’s geospatial applications, and major systems integrators (think Airbus Defense and Space, Lufthansa Systems, NATO, Thales…) incorporate its software in their own products.
NCP Flanders went to Leuven to interview Frederic Houbie, the Research Projects Manager at Luciad, about how he sees Horizon 2020. Luciad is a partner in the MARISA project, which is a collaborative RIA project submitted to an ICT call topic.
