Together with the renowned Dutch incubator UtrechtInc, IDfuse has developed programs designed to attract scientists to entrepreneurship. It is important not to turn excellent scientists into mediocre entrepreneurs, so we make sure that the scientists finds a role best suited to his or her skills. Often, we find that a researcher who has been experimenting with the first stages of commercialization is much more inclined to cooperate with others that are more experienced and trained in business methodologies.
