Register to the Webinar "Accelerators of High-Tech Campuses", 10th July 6 pm CEST
The webinar will focus on the structures and working methods of Innovation Accelerators and High-Tech campuses.
As global competition is harsher than ever, young companies and start-ups need increasingly guidance over a complex web of issues facing their new ventures: from pitching to prospective investors, to facing challenges on intellectual property and human resources, albeit competing for a place in the global innovation arena.
Accelerators and High-Tech Campuses, whether public or privately driven, provide a new way to informing, training and harnessing the innovative young companies, preparing them for the global markets.
The webinar will offer a comprehensive picture on these new structures and offer an appreciation on their potential from a Triple Helix view (interactions around university, industry - in the broader possible sense - and government - all types).
Presenters:
Mr Jeff Wallace , Keynote Speaker / International Startup Advisor / President, Global Kinetics / Angel Investor / Batchery / SVIYP, San Francisco Bay Area
Ms Mariianne Mareè Crary, System Entrepreneur Leader, San Francisco Bay Area

Science Parks and the attraction of talents: Activities and challenges
Nordic Conference on Small Business Research (NCSB), 23-25 May, 2018, Luleå
Authors: E Cadorin, M Klofsten, A Albahari, H Etzkowitz
This paper explores activities that Science Parks undertake in order to attract entrepreneurial talent for their tenants. Despite the importance of accessing talent, there are very few studies focusing this research area. The data comes from seven cases studies on talent attraction activities run by three Swedish Science Parks. We show that the parks conduct many different activities in order to attract entrepreneurial talent, which includes headhunting of key personnel for start-ups; organising establishment platforms for foreign companies, as well as facilitating exchanges of knowledge and talent with Higher Education Institutions. Science Parks host firms with different sizes, ages, and business orientation and therefore, park managers should be sensible to respond to real needs of tenant firms when performing talent attraction activities.
