We warmly invite innovation stakeholders and actors, business leaders, council and university representatives, and Future by Lund members to the seventh afternoon talk, this time about Lund Innovation District and the innovation politics that effects the way it is organised, governed, and financed.

Lund Innovation District is a global innovation ecosystem that brings together world-class research, entrepreneurship, and collaboration within walking distance. It is a place of innovation and creativity, with a playful spirit that fosters an innovation culture of experimentation in the spirit of potentialities.

Panel talk moderated by Pia Kinhult about a new arising innovation agenda. Let us speculate and discuss scenarios on what it would mean for Lund Innovation District if the proposal from “Forskningsfinansierings-utredningen” came into play. What a scrapping of “Lärarundantaget” would implicate. How a new interpretation of “Stadsstödsreglerna” can rearrange the game plan.  

Panellists:

Ingrid Petersson, Chairwoman of the board Lund University

Mats Lundqvist, Vice President of Utilization Chalmers

Göran Andersson, Programme Director at VINNOVA

Mats Benner, Prof innovation and research politics Lund University

Stefan Christiernin, Head of Engineering Research at Volvo Cars
