Open 2013: Innovation Commercialization and Licensingthe nciia
This document summarizes a presentation on incorporating university innovation commercialization projects into graduate business courses. It discusses researching the utility of having students develop commercialization plans for university-owned intellectual property. The results showed students created multiple commercialization plans per class.

Right now in institutions around the world, some of the greatest minds in computer science and statistics are coming up with amazing new algorithms and mathematically beautiful solutions. However it's entirely possible that the solutions they conceive will be impracticable in industry. The reason is simple; "the best answer is useless if it arrives too late to do anything with it". The key principle here is the compromise between 'accuracy' and 'latency'. In this talk I will describe examples where this holds true, and how I am using real-time machine learning models to solve challenges in eCommerce, Financial Services and Media companies.

There are several internal structural units (“Department of Business and Innovation”, “Innovation and Technology Transfer Centre”, “Design Factory”, “Career Centre”) and a network of external institutions where RTU is co-founder and active participant, for example: “Latvia Technology Park”, “Green Technology Incubator” and other.
RTU provides the mandatory course “Product Development and Design” (6-9ECTS) and internships for all undergraduate students implementing the concept “Learning by Doing” and helping in setting up their future business and acquiring investments.
The internal units ensure a one-stop agency for industrial partners and provide support to RTU’s researchers to: identify and assess potentially interesting research results; identify suitable commercialization methods and industrial partners; patent and research results; create prototypes; negotiate with companies and prepare contracts; create spin-off companies. They consult on business, design and engineering issues and carries out different activities stimulating researchers to interact with external players.
The external institutions promote market-oriented objectives of the university research and engage the university in strategic partnerships with stakeholders form business, national and regional authorities, other universities and research centres.
The presentation explore functioning and interaction of main players of commercialization process, shows the latest RTU achievements.
Great strides have happened at universities to cultivate entrepreneurs, and regions have developed stronger programs for collaborating with their higher education institutions to launch ventures. However, measurement and tracking of these economic development programs still lags the myriad approaches to starting new ventures. This delay may be attributed in part to continued reliance on traditional measurement methods for economic development performance within entrepreneurial ecosystems that are not structured to produce traditional results. This session presents new perspectives on the challenges of university-based entrepreneurship within regional economic systems and suggests new approaches to measuring and managing new venture creation.
This document discusses how to improve collaboration between universities/research institutes and businesses. It notes that traditionally their goals differ, with academics focused on publishing and businesses on profits. However, the most successful partnerships accept these differences and find mutual advantages. They establish clear mutual goals and separate reward systems for each party. Managing expectations through comprehensive partnership agreements is also important to avoid common mistakes like neglecting legal agreements.
iMET is set to be a global community to develop, promote and encourage innovation, Mentorship, Entrepreneurship and Talent building with Practitioner’s or Doer’s perspective.
iMET activities thus enables an ecosystem of, for and by the professionals to participate, educate, incubate, collaborate and co-exist to make each other successful.

Collaboration, culture and conflict slideshareMike Allen
This document discusses collaboration between universities and businesses. It notes that collaboration has increased dramatically since 2003 and is important for economic and social change. Effective long-term partnerships require relationship building and trust. The main barriers to collaboration are differences in culture, systems, work approaches and priorities between academics and businesses. Solutions include establishing collaboration agreements, developing joint systems, defining secrecy boundaries, and designating clear leaders. Managing conflicts that arise is also important for successful collaboration.
ECR Europe Forum '08. Implementing sustainable changeECR Community
This document discusses implementing sustainable change through joint research collaboration between industry and academia. It provides examples of past successful collaborations like the MIT auto studies of the 1980s and lean supply chain projects. Current areas of research focus are addressed emerging consumer concerns like environmental sustainability. The role of academia is to conduct relevant research through projects initiated by both industry and academia. Bridging the gap between research and implementation requires practices being turned into proven methods. The International Commerce Institute is discussed as a forum to advance knowledge through various means like research sponsorship and thought leader forums.
This document discusses ePortfolios in 2012 from a global perspective. It summarizes presentations and discussions at several ePortfolio conferences that year regarding trends in the use of ePortfolios. Key topics included the growing role of social media and mobile technologies in ePortfolios, the development of digital identity, and uses of ePortfolios across different educational levels and for lifelong learning and professional development. The document also provides an overview of the Open Badges initiative and its potential to recognize informal learning through alternative credentials.
This document discusses careers beyond academia for PhDs. It notes that only about 47% of PhDs will obtain academic jobs due to competitive markets, and that many PhDs pursue careers outside of academia. It outlines alternative career paths including research institutes, publishing, consulting, teaching, and more. It emphasizes the importance of researching career options, understanding how recruiters view PhDs, articulating skills in industry terms, networking, crafting strong applications, and using resources for career support and advice when pursuing non-academic jobs.

A Strategic Approach: GenAI in EducationPeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.

Editor's Notes
Please use the dd month yyyy format for the date for example 11 January 2008. The main title can be one or two lines long.
Southampton is widely-regarded as one of the birthplaces of the optic fibre and we still lead the world in the field of optoelectronics. Our aeronautical engineers have been instrumental in making aircraft engines quieter and more efficient through innovative approaches to wing and engine design. We are a leading light in the development of the World Wide Web and one of our visiting professors is Sir Tim Berners-Lee, who is often cited as the ‘father’ of the internet. We have experts working across the globe on climate change and our National Oceanography Centre and School of Ocean and Earth Science are the UK’s hub for key research into global warming, ocean processes and coastal erosion. Southampton is a world leader in the investigation of links between a mother’s diet and lifestyle and the health of her children into adulthood and our researchers have published groundbreaking studies into foetal health and later development. The University is also home to a number of world-leading research centres including: the National Oceanography Centre, Southampton; the Institute of Sound and Vibration Research; the Optoelectronics Research Centre; And the Institute of Developmental Sciences; In early 2008 the Engineering and Physical Sciences Research Council (EPSRC) announced funding for 2 new national research centres at the University through the Science and Innovation Awards: the national Centre for Advanced Tribology (nCats), based in the School of Engineering Sciences, and the National Centre in Foundational Operational Research (Schools of Mathematics and Management). As a university in a city with a strong maritime heritage, we offer courses with a maritime or marine focus across the majority of our academic schools and our Institute for Maritime Law is the largest centre of its kind in the UK. Arts and humanities are strong at Southampton and we have a unique suite of arts centres at our Highfield campus, including the Nuffield Theatre, the Turner Sims Concert Hall and the John Hansard Gallery.
The IMPACT that result from the great things that our students do after they leave the University is the Knowledge Transfer at it best! Global leading Library House report 2007 3 rd best in world in efficiency of start-ups Measure of VC investment in start-ups to research expenditures 40% with commercial partners HEBCIS 06-07 (latest sector-wide comparator data) Working with SME HEBCIS 06-07 Consultancy Units: RIfI, IT Innovations, Geodata, ECS Partners, ISVR consulting, GAU Analytical, Wolfson Unit What is the G-Factor? The G-factor International University Ranking measures the importance of universities as a function of the number of links to their websites from the websites of other leading international universities. The G-Factor is based on the following premises: Universities are in the business of creating and disseminating knowledge. Universities are prolific sources of web content. The truism that "an organization becomes its website" really is true for universities (or at least the totality of the web content of a university is more than a reflection of the total embedded knowledge of the university - it increasingly IS the the embedded knowledge of the university). "If it's not on Google is doesn't exist!" Disturbing to some, but a reality to the majority for whom the Web has become a seamless part of their knowledge environment. Academics and instititutions that recognize and respond to this new environment ultimately will be among its beneficiaries. Citation is the highest form of flattery in academia: measures of citation rates, while they remain controversial in the detail of how they are applied, are generally acknowledged in principle as one of the most objective measures of the importance of academic works. The essential concept behind the G-Factor is therefore to search (using the Google Search Engine) on every leading university's website for links to the websites of other leading universities and count the total number of such links. This number is the G-Factor.
