COINTT Conference is regular professional event of conference autumn. We think about programme structure of it from the summer beginning though.
Slovak Centre of Scientific and Technical Information is clear about thematic focus of professional intellectual property protection and its commercialization conference with international participation. COOPERATION INNOVATION TECHNOLOGY TRANSFER 2022 (COINTT 2022) will “open businessmen´s eyes” to help them become acquainted with academic workplaces potential.
Currently about simplifying communication
COINTT event means technology transfer, intellectual property protection, innovations and business support. Those wide terms are specific and develop in time.
Hence annual conference represents occasion for interested parties to share the most current news from the areas.
COINTT will this year focus on simplifying contact between academic and business sphere in technology transfer.
“In program entries we will try to find answers on questions like: How can Open Access and Easy Access contribute to commercial use of intellectual property? How to make technology transfer on Slovak scientific research workplaces easier? What methods of contact and cooperation with commercial sphere these workplaces use? How to make their activity more interesting for private sector? What role should play Slovak Centre of Scientific and Technical Information Technology Transfer Centre as national workplace? What is role and relevance of local technology transfer centres at universities?,” specifies Želmíra Gerová, Slovak Centre of Scientific and Technical Information.
