DESCRIPTION:Overview\nDo you ever wonder whether your ideas have commerci
 al potential — or how commercialisation could shape your career?\n\nMany
  researchers struggle to spot the commercial value hidden within their o
 wn work or feel uncertain about how to navigate the commercialisation pr
 ocess. Others simply aren’t aware of the career-boosting opportunities t
 hat come from engaging with industry\, licensing\, or spin-out creation.
  In this workshop\, participants will gain a firm understanding of the c
 ommercialisation process at the University of Manchester. The workshop w
 ill equip attendees with the skills to identify commercially valuable in
 tellectual property within their own research and to recognise potential
  stakeholders who may benefit from these innovations. Additionally\, par
 ticipants will explore how engaging in commercialisation activities can 
 influence their career progression and identify the key skills required 
 for roles in licensing and spin-out ventures.\n\nIntended learning outco
 mes\n- Understand the foundations of Commercialisation - Define key comm
 ercialisation terminology and concepts\; describe the role of UoM Innova
 tion Factory (UoMIF) and the processes used at UoM\; Explain why commerc
 ialisation is important for research impact and career development.\n\n-
