Suppose you are a researcher at a not-so-famous scientific institute. You have a spectacular idea for a new research project; your boss and your colleagues agree that it is highly promising, but no one can help you get the funding. What a bummer!
โThis is a recurring problem for many research institutes all over the world,โ said the head of research at a Taiwanese hospital. โSome researchers have problems making their good ideas heard and as a result, they do not move ahead.โ
Therefore, next October, Orange Gibbon will conduct a purpose-designed session at a medical conference to tackle this very issue. We will get researchers from similar but different institutes to find out if they have different but similar, promising research ideas. We then offer them the opportunity to join forces and create a compelling pitch in front of a โShark Tankโ of industry experts. The experts will give feedback to strengthen the research proposal and may act as sponsors to secure funding.
Normally, this kind of interaction happens purely by chance at Congresses, during coffee breaks or dinners. By designing a specific format that tackles the root of the problem, the chance that these promising research ideas move ahead increases significantly.
It is possible to design solutions and formats for every need, in meetings, conferences and events. As long as the question is clear!
