METHODOLOGY
Innovation program based on different ecosystems such as MIT (Massachusetts Institute of Technology).
It is based on the approach of problem study and analysis as a first step to innovating, working on diversification, tangibility and the use of existing resources.
It focuses on learning and the development of own knowledge to generate paths of impact, working by “de-risking”, exploring uncertainties and minimizing risks.
Teams of students participate in the programme, supported by the mentoring of senior researchers from their University, who help in guiding and facilitating the access to technologies from the Research Institutes. Results and progress are reviewed before a Board of Killers.
