Yearbook of the Academic Enterprise Awards
At its meeting at Karolinska Institutet in Stockholm in December 2008, the Science|Business Innovation Board addressed specifically how innovation could help us recover from what is now being called “The Great Recession”. This book summarises those recommendations, as well as a series of additional policy dialogues that took place at Karolinska at the same time, in a conference organised by Science|Business on entrepreneurship in academia.
But ideas are worthless without the people to make them real. And so this book celebrates the most important actors in any innovation-led recovery: the intrepid entrepreneurs who are the primary vectors through which new discoveries and inventions get out of the lab and into the marketplace.
