On June 20, 2013, the Carnegie Mellon Portugal Program will hold the
Innovation and Entrepreneurship Workshop, at the Pavilhão do Conhecimento, in
Lisbon. This half-day event (13:00 – 18:00) will combine a Pitch Coaching
Session "Product Idea" with Case Studies on “Multiple Paths for
Technology Commercialization," and will finish with a roundtable about
"The Life of Intellectual Property." The goal of the workshop is to
discuss different potential commercialization pathways, to provide an overview
of different types of support for knowledge transfer in Portugal and at
Carnegie Mellon University, to provide an overview of the IP lifecycle, as well
as to bring together the CMU Portugal community.
The Pitch Coaching Session “Product Idea” is mostly oriented to
students and faculty members, with an interest in receiving feedback about
ideas for applications of their research. You are all invited to be a part of
this session, and to contribute by presenting your ideas for products or
services created from your research. You can find detailed information about

During the event we will have several speakers, namely: João Claro,

of Veniam; Hugo Gamboa, CEO of Plux - Wireless Biosignals; Reed
McManigle, manager for business development and licensing, CTTEC, Carnegie
