SUMMARY:CHESS Technology Transfer Day: Success & Pitfall Stories
DESCRIPTION:FI MUNI\, Brno\, is organizing a one-day CHESS event in Brno devoted to successful technology transfer achieved in the framework of CHESS.  \n? Date: December 5\, 2025\n? Time: 9:00 – 15:00\n? Location: KYPO room\, FI MUNI\, Brno\n?️ Refreshments: Coffee & a light lunch will be provided \nThe tentative title is “CHESS Technology Transfer Day: Success and Pitfall Stories”.  The event is open to all\, and anybody can attend. \nThe idea is to present examples of successful cooperation between academia and industry. Ideally\, each presentation should include representatives from both academia and industry who explain \n– The origins of the joint project and its main goals\n– What did and did not work (from various perspectives)\n– What are the outcomes and benefits (the current and the expected ones)\n– What are the main lessons learnt? \nThe above outline is not rigid. The expected presentation length is between 30-50 minutes. \nPlease send your presentation proposals/ideas to tony@fi.muni.cz before November 1\, 2025. \nWe agree on the details individually. Then\, we assemble & publish the program. \nWe hope to attract representatives of companies and institutions interested in establishing closer contacts and cooperation with academia. \nIf you have any additional questions\, contact at  tony@fi.muni.cz.
