There is an opportunity to set up 1-2-1 online calls with the 5 speaker companies at a later date on request. The speakers’ contact details will become available after the webinar. When contacting the presenters, please include 1) USP and any track record of your company, 2) How your technology fits their research priorities, and 3) non-confidential slide deck to explain your proposal for potential collaboration.
