Course OVERVIEW Dr. Andreas Worberg, CCO Head of Section DTU Biosustain Lead the biorevolution across life science – how convergence of technologies can transform your business How to innovate and compete through technology in a sustainable future We are in the midst of a paradigm shift – a transition toward a technology driven biobased and more sustainable society that is set to redefine how we live, what we produce and how we produce it – and consequently how we do business. Technology is driving this development and is taking place across industries, professional disciplines and research fields. It is not the technologies on their own, but the convergence of them that will be a gamechanger by accelerating the pace of product development and innovating entire new products and services. These technologies include life science and biotechnology, AI, quantum technology, advanced manufacturing and materials, advanced semiconductor technology, robot technology and autonomous systems, advanced sensorial technology, and cybersecurity. From the way we produce food and make medicine to how we construct buildings, move goods, offer services and power our economies – everything is changing. And the companies that understand how to leverage these converging technologies across industries will be the ones that lead. Want to see what the course is really like?

You will deepen your leadership skills while gaining up-to-date insights into the technologies transforming industries. From breakthroughs in biotechnology, AI and machine learning to chemical engineering, biomanufacturing and data analytics, you will explore how these technologies are converging to build a new industrial era – one where sustainable solutions are not just possible, but often more cost-effective and profitable than petrochemical-based alternatives. Through curated excursions, you will visit early-stage student ventures at DTU Skylab, cutting-edge deep-tech spinouts at DTU Science Park and privately backed life science accelerators. You will experience the entrepreneurial journey firsthand from the lab bench to the market. These live cases will help you envision new products, services and even entirely new business models for your own company. I usually attend scientific conferences, but this course offered a unique balance between research, entrepreneurship, and industry that I have not experienced before Fernanda Lopes, Ph.D, EMBA AGC Biologics Early Stage Development Manager The European Union has identified biosolutions and biotechnology as critical technologies for strengthening Europe’s competitiveness, resilience and security.
