GenerationS is the biggest startup accelerator in Russia and Eastern Europe.
The University had already launched its own accelerator programs before this partnership was negotiated. Those are the Young Innovator School and the Innovative Startup School, both organized by the Innovation Office.
KFU MedTech is a name of the new program to be launched at the Institute of Fundamental Medicine and Biology by KFU and RVC in 2018. The program is targeted at finding and growing promising HealthNet initiatives in the Volga Federal District. KFU aims to attract young talents and accumulate new ideas in medicine.
The University has all the necessary infrastructure for such an undertaking, including Open Labs, research centers, the University Clinic, a collective use center, the Medical Simulation Center, and accommodation for arriving employees.
The program will be co-financed by RVC and partner companies.
