This Open House event addresses the need for global, interdisciplinary platforms of business creation, in general, and the willingness and ability of The University to transform into such a new foundation, in particular.
The objective is to inspire and encourage participants -- practitioners, faculty, and students -- to integrate actions and work more intensely together, across all borders, in order to better understand and build meaningful universal Human-Technology-Business from idea to investment-readiness, from “Venture to Capital” (or V2C).
In the event, Deans of Humanities, Information Technology, and Business from JYU (Finland) present their views - topped with a case presentation on a platform plan involving universities from three continents - to a panel chaired by the Head of entrepreneurship programs of IIT Kharagpur (India) and the local (USA) audience.
