El ICT de la Universidad de Navarra y la Fundación Everis analizan resultados científicos para impulsar la transferencia tecnológica
The ICT of the University of Navarra and the Everis Foundation analyze scientific results to boost technology transfer
In the first phase of project , work has been carried out in areas such as nanopharmacology and the characterization of wine yeasts.
The Scientific and Technological high school of the University of Navarra (ICT) and the Everis Foundation will collaborate to promote different technologies born from the research developed by the academic center. The initiative is part of the I-deals program with which Everis aims to promote innovation and strengthen its partnership with the university world.
The agreement seeks to analyze, from a market perspective, different projects of research in an advanced state of development and apply, with the experience of I-deals, the knowledge of the business to take them to market, providing potential customers with solutions rather than products.
During this first phase of project , different initiatives from fields as diverse as nanopharmacology -applied to the dispensing of medicines-, the identification and characterization of wine yeasts or computational pharmacology have been addressed.
This initial phase concluded in June. From here on, two more cycles of four months each are expected to incorporate new ideas to this initiative.
Who is who
The Everis Foundation was created in 2001 in Spain to cooperate with society, primarily through university institutions by developing human capital and disseminating knowledge on information technologies and their global applications for business. The Foundation is the result of everis' interest in contributing something more than its services, through the development of values and capabilities that promote well-being in the society in which it operates.
The high school Científico y Tecnológico (ICT), on the other hand, is a non-profit organization promoted by the University of Navarra to facilitate the partnership between companies and the University. Since its constitution in 1986, the mission statement of the ICT is to act as a link between university researchers and companies in order to facilitate and promote the research and promote the transfer of knowledge and results of research generated at the University.
