Tapio Koivu - VTT - Stanford - Jan 25 2010Burton Lee
VTT is a contract research organization in Finland that produces research for customers. It aims to increase competitiveness and promote new business creation. However, VTT faces challenges commercializing its research due to differences between managing research and innovation.
To address this, VTT tested an "Entrepreneur-in-Residence" model where CEOs help commercialize technologies. This was encouraging and three startups were launched. A new proposed model involves sourcing IP from universities and companies, packaging it, licensing it to funds specializing in IP investments, and potentially spinning off startups. For VTT and others to fully exploit opportunities, culture change is needed to better manage innovation versus research and take risks.
