Abstract:
Neiberia.com is a prototype business and social networking website created for the project: “New information technologies for electronic economy and information society based on the SOA paradigm” under the Operational Programme Innovative Economy. The idea of the portal is based on local communities, both focused on private users as well as small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and electronic markets, where they both meet and may interact. After completion of the project in January 2013, the team faced a completely new task of commercialization of its results. The first stage of project promotion was participation in competitions for business idea, conferences for startups and pitching. The project qualified for the final of the competition “Innovative Poland. How to jump over the crisis.”organized by the Institute for Liberty (Instytut Wolności). At the same time, team members decided to increase their knowledge on raising capital, running a business and marketing by participating in trainings and workshops. According to the creators of the portal Neiberia.com the knowledge and experience gained during the training sessions, workshops and competitions was very valuable and it is not sufficient for the commercial success of the project if the team is provided only with financial support.
The first steps in the commercialization of a research project – the example of Neiberia.com
