The II Workshop on R&D Management will take place at the Tech Talent Center (c/Badajoz 73, Barcelona) on Thursday 9 April 2015, at 6.30 pm. This workshop aims to discuss all key aspects in the management and administration of research and the life cycle of a project: from the conception of the idea of the project and the creation of a consortium, to economic justifications and audits.
The quality of the technical and scientific aspects are not the only factors that guarantee success in research leadership and management. There are also many relevant organizational, legal and financial aspects. Defining and implementing a good strategy and adopting the appropriate methodology are essential.
The workshop is organized to facilitate discussion with those attending and is structured in three sections with short presentations. Guest speakers will explain key ideas arising from their experience for good management and coordination of research projects and teams. The oral presentations will be 10 minutes long and there will be an open session for questions and answers after each section.
The workshop discussion topics will include:
- The life cycle of the R+D project
- Management and planning of a research project
- Legal and financial aspects
- Exploitation of results
- Management of a research group and consortia
- Management of certifications
- Technology transfer
