Anton Habjanič: IP policy model at the University of MariborCUBCCE Conference
As the global knowledge economy grows each year, the importance of intellectual property (IP) policy also grows for non-profit organizations such as universities. Pretty much every organization has an IP portfolio of some kind and value, whether or not the organization realizes it as such. As a result, almost every organization needs an IP policy model, even if it’s a simple one.
This presentation is intended to help the universities and other research organizations to set IP policy model to optimise the benefits from the intellectual assets created by their staff and students. The presented model, which was adopted at the University of Maribor, does not provide an IP policy that can be applied across all organizations as there is no “one size fits all” approach to IP management. But, it identifies the key features that need to be considered in order to build a strategic framework for the managing of IP, as for example the issues of ownership, protection and sharing of the economic benefits arising from the commercial exploitation of IP created by researchers in the course of their duties or activities at the university.

The benefits and costs of internationalization are weighed, including transaction costs, risks, and whether the business model is suitable for foreign markets. The International Growth Radar is introduced as a tool to evaluate all these factors and determine attractiveness of international markets.
Sessie 1 - Van Aha tot Voila - 17 en 19 maart 2015 - Peter Bertels en Jan Bo...researchvlerick
Het belang van creativiteit en innovatie voor organisaties is je wel bekend. Bedrijven die hun positie willen behouden of versterken moeten continu blijven vernieuwen.
Maar hoe zorg je ervoor dat er in jouw organisatie genoeg zuurstof is om de creativiteit van je medewerkers aan te wakkeren? Hoe wordt een geniaal idee ook werkelijkheid? Met andere woorden: hoe loopt de weg tussen het “Aha!-moment” en het “Voila!-moment”?
Gebaseerd op het onderzoek ‘Diagnosetool voor het stroomlijnen van het creativiteitsproces in organisaties: het creëren en stimuleren van een cultuur voor creativiteit’ van Katleen De Stobbeleir zet deze creativiteitsmanagementtool jou en je organisatie alvast op weg ... Peter Bertels en Jan Bormans gidsen je door deze business tool.
Creativity Talk 13-14 - sessie 8: de inspiratie-economieresearchvlerick
Wie wil innoveren heeft eerst en vooral nood aan inspiratie. Daarom speelt inspiratie een essentiële rol in de Vlaamse kennis- en creatieve economie. Maar waar komt deze inspiratie vandaan?
Inclusieve creativeit door Katleen De Stobbeleirresearchvlerick
We zijn zo vrij dit ook op onszelf toe te passen en kondigen we een aanpassing aan van het Creativity Talks programma: in mei zal Katleen De Stobbeleir het hebben over inclusieve creativiteit of hoe diversiteit in je organisatie benutten en omzetten in innovaties.
Diversiteit, in al zijn aspecten (demografische verschillen, persoonlijkheid,…), is essentieel voor het bevorderen van creativiteit binnen de organisatie. Jammer genoeg laten heel wat organisaties de diversiteit die inherent aanwezig is onderbenut.
In deze sessie staan we stil bij hoe organisaties het aanwezige potentieel kunnen capteren en omzetten in innovaties. We lichten een aantal nieuwe inzichten toe aangaande best practices rond inclusive creativity, en hoe deze toe te passen in de eigen economische context.
Sessie 4: Eenmaal, andermaal, totaal! Herbekijk je business model om totaalop...researchvlerick
Meer en meer bedrijven bieden niet louter producten of diensten aan, maar oplossingen, die verschillende producten, diensten en technologieën op maat integreren. Een bedrijf omvormen tot solution provider is echter niet eenvoudig.
Op basis van onderzoek van Marion Debruyne (Vlerick Business School) ontwikkelde Flanders DC een praktische aanpak die geënt is op het Business Model Canvas van Alexander Osterwalder. Hierin benaderen we elk aspect van je businessmodel vanuit een “solution” denken. Kom deze aanpak samen met ons ontdekken in deze interactieve workshop!
Sessie 3: Social entrepreneurship: mijn business? De wereld verbeteren! door ...researchvlerick
Kunnen ondernemers de wereld redden? Of is het huidige bedrijfsleven eerder de oorzaak van onze maatschappelijke problemen? Laten we het oplossen van onze sociale- en milieuproblemen enkel over aan de overheid en de non-profit of kunnen ook bedrijven hierin een rol spelen? Moet de samenleving ten dienste staan van onze ‘bedrijvigheid’ en handel of staat ons ondernemerschap ten dienste van de samenleving?
Nieuwe initiatieven en netwerken van ‘Social Entrepreneurship’ (‘sociaal ondernemerschap’) proberen dringende maatschappelijke noden en uitdagingen te counteren aan de hand van vraaggerichte, innovatieve en rendabele businessmodellen. Laat je inspireren door jonge ondernemers die van werken aan een betere wereld hun business hebben gemaakt.
Update Creativity Talks '13-'14 sessie 1 Minder is Meer door Marc Buelens researchvlerick
Overvolle agenda’s. Overdosissen informatie. Emotionele belasting. Overdaad aan aanbod. Overbelasting van onze systemen. We hebben drie grote soorten van ‘overload’: informatieve, emotionele en opportuniteiten.
Managementexperten proberen bij informatieve overload signaal van ruis te onderscheiden. In emotionele overbelasting is veerkracht opbouwen het sleutelwoord, en hier lijkt timing het absolute verschil te maken. Voor de overdaad aan aanbod, geldt het principe ‘less is more’, maar we vergeten maar al te vaak dat ‘meer’ ook ‘anders’ is. Hoe ga jij als manager om met information overload? Belemmert dit je bij het nemen van de juiste beslissingen?

Passie bij ondernemerschap door Matthieu Voet (Newance)researchvlerick
Passie is ongetwijfeld een van de meest geciteerde eigenschappen van ondernemers. Het is de passie die hen vooruit drijft en ervoor zorgt dat ze helemaal worden opgeslorpt in hun activiteiten. Vreemd genoeg echter staat het wetenschappelijk onderzoek naar ondernemerschapspassie nog in zijn kinderschoenen. Een eerste aanzet in de ontrafeling van het passie-construct werd onlangs gegeven door Professor Cardon. Zij toonde aan dat er drie verschillende soorten ondernemerschapspassies bestaan voor verschillende rollen: de rol van de uitvinder (steeds op zoek naar nieuwe business ideeën), de opstarter (kan niet wachten om zijn idee om te zetten in praktijk) en de ontwikkelaar (wil niets liever dan de onderneming zo snel mogelijk doen groeien).
Een heel aantal vragen blijven echter onbeantwoord: in welke mate beïnvloedt de passie voor deze verschillende rollen de plannen van de startende ondernemer? Versnellen ze het proces of vormen ze eerder een barrière? Zijn deze passies stabiel of kunnen ze veranderen? En als ze kunnen veranderen, welke zijn de triggers?
Tijdens deze creativity talk proberen Prof. dr. Veroniek Collewaert en Jacob Vermeire hierop een antwoord the geven. Deze inzichten kunnen interessant zijn voor startende ondernemers, en een belangrijke impact hebben op het ontwerp van initiatieven in ondernemerschapsonderwijs alsook de bedrijfscontext (bv. effectief stimuleren van intrapreneurship).
Creativity Talk: Growing Beyond 2012 door Marc Cosaert van Ernst&Youngresearchvlerick
Al sinds 2008 houdt de financiële crisis de globale economie in zijn greep. Ondanks nooit geziene overheidsmaatregelen zetten ondernemers zich schrap voor de toekomst.
Maar hoe reageren grote en kleine ondernemingen op de crisis? Schuilen er ook opportuniteiten in deze moeilijke tijden? Hoe kan je vandaag innovatief en creatief aan de slag blijven? En welke zijn – gezien het huidige klimaat – strategische keuzes om een dergelijke periode te overbruggen en verder te groeien?
Prof. dr. Hans Crijns deed hier in het kader van het Impulscentrum ‘Groeimanagement voor kleine en grote ondernemingen’ (IGMO) onderzoek naar. Tijdens deze Creativity Talk vertelt hij samen met Ernst & Young (prime foundation partner van IGMO) welke economische trends hij heeft vastgesteld en geeft hij tips om vandaag creatief en innoverend te werk te gaan.

(Dec. 2011)
There are few economic policies as popular as research
parks, incubators and clusters –very hot today.
It is hard today to find a country, region, or even a city
that is not trying to develop a network of competitive
firms (clusters)
The “political appeal” is therefore obvious, particularly
now that the world’s economic crisis has put a spotlight
on “innovation” to diversify economies and create jobs
However the difficulty lies in turning these “science
parks”, incubators or “hi-tech”corridors into success
stories. Not so simple.
