Who we are, what we do
The basic research early-stage projects often fail during development, no matter how promising the science is. There is very little funding available for such projects and they are quite unlikely to attract investors on their own without reaching some significant milestones first.
Therefore, SPARK programs provide the education and mentorship necessary to advance research discoveries from the bench to the bedside. Our aim is to increase the maturity of academic discoveries towards practical solutions that can address unmet needs in the field of life science and healthcare.
SPARK Poland is an initiative that supports translational projects so they can be effectively implemented into clinical practice by matching scientists with volunteer industry professionals. The program follows the same principles that have been the cornerstones of SPARK at Stanford since it was established by Professor Daria Mochly-Rosen and Kevin Grimes in 2006 for advancing new biomedical research discoveries into promising new treatments for patients.
SPARK Poland is an official members of SPARK Global network.
