The workshop "From idea to market" ended on November 28. It was organized by Biopol'H in collaboration with the Bellvitge University Hospital (HUB) and the Catalan Institute of Oncology (ICO), framed in the field of innovation. The workshop was addressed to employees of the ICO and the HUB, and focused teaching on the process from the emergence of an innovative idea to its implementation in the commercial sector.

The Project Manager of Europainnova SL, Rosa Maria Druguet, gave a seminar in order to provide with the necessary tools to strengthen the capacity of each individual not only to generate ideas but also to learn how to prepare concrete proposals that can be commercialized. Some of the ideas suggested by the students themselves were created and developed during the various sessions of the workshop, moving on in the chain which is supposed to be the development of a project. Among the points to be discussed there were the comparison of an idea with others in the vicinity; its selection, definition and control, the implementation of the project and the evaluation of its feasibility, or the review of the model of confidentiality agreement.

Divided into five sessions of four hours each, the workshop was developed during the second half of November and was attended by twenty students whose evaluation is very positive.
