TORCH D5.3 - Good Practices Report on Innovation’s Detection

Abstract

“The best practices report on innovation detection” constitutes the third report of Work Package 5 “Strengthening cooperation between universities and enterprises”. This report focuses on innovation detection and seeks to identify the strategies, procedures, best practices, and tools implemented within the Alliance Universities to monitor research and scout innovation inside and outside their institutions. The report also underlines the challenges that some universities face with innovation detection because of process-driven challenges. Furthermore, the best practice procedures, practices, and tools of non-academic partners of the Alliance Universities are introduced. Finally, a presentation of potential and preliminary recommendations that have emerged from our analysis will be presented.
