Taibah University in Medina will host the second conference on innovation and entrepreneurship in Saudi universities on December 9–10. Held under the theme "From Research and Innovation to Value and Investment," the event is organized in strategic partnership with the Council of Universities Affairs, the Research, Development and Innovation Authority (RDIA), and the National Institute for Health Research.
The conference aims to strengthen the integration between the research, innovation, and investment ecosystems, and to support the transfer of knowledge from universities into practical applications—ultimately contributing to the creation of a knowledge-based economic impact. The event will feature participation from a select group of national entities and Saudi universities.
The conference will cover several key themes, including the technical readiness for commercializing research, the role of research and innovation in university differentiation, the financing of university-affiliated companies, and the nature of the partnership between researchers and their universities. The program will also include panel discussions, workshops, sessions on the challenges surrounding university-based inventions, and an exhibition dedicated to innovation and technology transfer.
