The new Transfer Science to Spin-off (Transfer.S2S) funding program supports scientists who have ideas for future innovative applications based on their basic research and are therefore considering a spin-off.
However, there is often one last small step missing to decide whether the idea has market potential, for example the confirmation of hypotheses or fundamental findings.
