Nowadays, the world is asking a researcher 2.0: a researcher that is able to translate research into business opportunities and that is able to communicate at the same level as an industry: the Entrepreneurial Researcher. This requires the researcher to acquire entrepreneurial skills. The Bootcamp “The Entrepreneurial Researcher” teaches you how to transform the outputs of your research into business opportunities.
