OUR PROJECTS
Since 2017, Technology Transfer Office of the University of Lodz, in a consortium with the Medical University of Lodz (Project Leader) and the University of Warmia and Mazury in Olsztyn, has been successfully implementing the project of the Ministry of Education and Science Innovation Incubator – we have completed two and are already in the middle of the third edition of this programme.
We started with the Innovation Incubator +, through the Innovation Incubator 2.0 and the latest Innovation Incubator 4.0 implemented since September 2020.
Thanks to the Innovation Incubator, we are already signing an agreement with our university's 16th research team to carry out research work, which will open the door to collaboration between our researchers and external partners.
During the four years of running the Innovation Incubator project at the University of Lodz, scientists received additional support for conducting research increasing their commercialisation potential in the amount of PLN 1,000,000.00.
We hope that we will have the opportunity to further support our scientists in the implementation of projects that will arouse interest not only of the world of science, but also of the world of our partners in the broadly understood environment of the University of Lodz.
The Innovation Incubator Programme is funded from European funds as part of the project outside competition entitled “Support for management of scientific research and commercialization of the results of R&D works in scientific units and enterprises” implemented under the Smart Growth Operational Programme 2014-2020
