From lab to impact

A series for researchers ready to explore new horizons


Are you a researcher looking to amplify the real-world impact of your work? Join us for From lab to impact, a series of 3 info sessions designed to help you imagine what that future could look like.

This series is hosted by Startlab.Brussels and VUB and brings you inspiring real-life stories, plenty of practical insights and the opportunity to connect with researchers who have successfully made the leap.

Whether you are curious about innovation mandates, real-world applications, or building the right team, this is a great opportunity to explore stepping outside the lab.

Who is this for?
Researchers from any discipline who are curious about creating impact, exploring innovation, or rethinking the next step in their career. Because your research has potential far beyond the lab.


Session 1 - May 20th 2025

Real-world applications are born in the lab. Real stories of research that SPIN-off.


What if your research was just the beginning?
This session is about that crucial moment when your idea becomes more than an academic publication, and starts responding to a real-world need. We will explore what it means to valorise research with a view to real-world impact, and how that shift can open unexpected paths.

Hear from former researchers who turned their work into impactful ventures. Learn how they stepped outside the academic comfort zone and discovered what it takes to transform an idea into innovation.

Speakers will be confirmed soon.
