How to define impact? Jyrki Saarinen providing background on impact theories and highlighting examples from PREIN Photonics Research and Innovation on application to for example detect bladder cancer, provide carbon-free energy, and bone implants that can be light activated.

How to increase research and industry collaboration? Early exposure to stakeholders during studies, strategic long-term partnerships with university and companies, stimulating multidisciplinary research themes and combining new areas and industries

Thank you to our panelists Minna Hendolin University of Eastern Finland, Veli-Pekka Ihanus Business Finland, Seppo Honkanen and Samuli Siitonen Nanocomp Oy Ltd and for Matti Mannonen Teknologiateollisuus for hosting the panel on research and industry collaboration. Great insights and food for thought!
