Exploring opportunities in healthcare and related applications by leveraging cutting edge technologies
The MIT Bangkok Symposium is the first regional conference in Thailand organized by the MIT Industrial Liaison Program (ILP), in cooperation with Bangkok Bank, Ltd. The symposium will bring together industry, academic, and investment leaders from the Healthcare and BioTech ecosystem at MIT and across Southeast Asia to Bangkok, Thailand. Attendees will benefit from distinguished speakers and panelists, including industry luminaries, pioneers, investors, and world-class researchers, with whom they can interact during networking sessions. HealthTech and BioTech entrepreneurs from the MIT Startup Exchange will exhibit their transformative solutions in the Symposium and be open to discuss potential collaboration with attendees.
Epoch Foundation of Taiwan invite MIT-connected startups (in AI, Data Analytics, IoT, Digital Health, AR& VR, Robotics, Smart Transportation) to apply to their Global Startup Program, that since 2015, has invited 139 startups to discover business opportunities to explore global market and scale up ventures. Over 1/3 of the fellow startups had obtained business partners, investments or set up Taiwan branches through Epoch Foundation’s solid connections.
MIT Startup Exchange presents its September Startup Workshop, centered around sustainable materials innovation. Today, there is a large and growing societal interest for greater sustainability in the material systems that provide for a modern life style. The call is across all industry sectors, and includes the entire value chain including raw materials, material processing, material uses, and end-of-cycle treatment/reuse. This represents a challenge and an opportunity for companies, and many MIT startups are developing and providing innovative technology and business model solutions.
The Startup Exchange team is looking for 10 Startups to present and exhibit at the conference.
We are looking for 5-6 energy related startups to exhibit at the Showcase session of the 2020 MIT Energy Conference.
As the imperative for sustainable development intensifies, Thailand and Southeast Asia stand at the crossroads of challenges and opportunities in fostering effective industry-academic collaboration. The region's diverse ecosystems and economies necessitate a nuanced understanding of the interplay between sectors, urging stakeholders to navigate obstacles, capitalize on synergies, and develop effective policies.
MIT faculty will be joined by MIT-connected startups to facilitate conversations with senior executives from Thailand to foster dialogue, share insights, and cultivate a roadmap for effective collaboration. Through a multifaceted exploration of challenges and opportunities, participants will contribute to shaping a future where industry and academia work together with local government to address pressing sustainability issues, with a focus on how MIT-industry collaboration can accelerate substantial results.
MIT Startup Exchange, MIT Industrial Liaison Program (ILP), in partnership with MIT Sloan Global Programs, will host a delegation of about 45 executives from Taiwan in October.
