Description

As Malaysia moves into the 4th industrial revolution, there is a need to develop a platform to cultivate, develop and commercialize innovation within the academic ecosystem of the University Malaya (UM). The primary field that the Innovation Forum Kuala Lumpur [IFKL] focuses on is medical technology. This includes pharmaceuticals, medical biotechnology, medical devices and health related computer technology development. The IFKL aims to bring together all stakeholders in the value creation chain from clinicians, industry experts, regulatory bodies and innovators from all related faculties in UM to discuss and develop relevant and commercially viable technology. Innovation cannot take place in isolation, especially in such a complex and regulated field such as medical technology. The Innovation Forum Conference in Kuala Lumpur will help facilitate communication and collaboration between all key stakeholders to develop viable medical technology conceived by academia. There needs to be a paradigm shift among academic researchers to move towards a commercial development pathway rather than simply issuing publications. Researchers require opportunities, early exposure and specific skills to become medical entrepreneurs. The Innovation Forum Kuala Lumpur hopes to create excitement and highlight the possibilities available in translating technology from the bench to business, so that students from both undergraduate and postgraduate disciplines can venture into this industry. Venue Please note that there are two different venues for the two days of the conference. The workshop on Friday 21st September will take place at: Tan Sri Azman Hashim Building [AHB] Faculty of Business and Accountancy University of Malaya Lembah Pantai 50603 Kuala Lumpur Malaysia The Forum on Saturday 22nd September will take place at: Dewan Tunku Canselor University of Malaya Lembah Pantai 50603 Kuala Lumpur Malaysia Price Workshop 21st September [includes access to Forum on 22nd September] Government officials - USD $40 Industry companies - USD $80 Forum 22nd September only All delegates - USD $15 Business Idea Competition Calling all innovators!!
