Have you ever thought about the impact your research or idea could have outside academia? IXA offers a new learning track on valorisation and impact. The goal? To inspire you and make you aware of the power of creating value and impact through your research, and how to actually achieve that impact.
FOR WHO?

Are you a researcher at one of Amsterdam’s knowledge institutions (UvA, VU, Amsterdam UMC and HvA) and want to learn how to create impact with your idea or research? Then join this program. The learning program is particularly suitable for PhD students and postdocs who want to learn how to valorise their research.

THE CONTENT OF THE LEARNING PATH VALORISATION AND IMPACT

The learning path consists of 3 workshops in 2 modules interspersed with online information.

The first workshop (module 1) focuses on impact, what it means to you, how to create it, the challenges you face and how to take the first steps to create impact. The second and third workshops (module 2) guide you in fleshing out your ideas or research findings into a plan. You will make a stakeholder analysis and learn about the support available within the knowledge institute.

Throughout the course, the focus is on translating your research into an idea that can evolve into a service, product or way of public outreach.
