SPARK Europe Innovator Café ǀ Scientist Turned Entrepreneur ǀ 22 June 2022 | 4-5 pm (CET)
Daniel Kvak & Esa Räsänen “Panel Discussion: Experiences and Lessons-learned”
Are you interested in building a start-up to further develop your technology but have no clue on how to move forward? Are you looking for role-models and advice from people who have been there, too?
In this SPARK Europe Innovator Café our panelists, who have been bench-scientists not too long ago, will share their personal experience as a scientist turned entrepreneur and give insights on valuable lessons learned and pitfalls they met along the way:
Daniel Kvak is a Ph.D. student of Masaryk University in Brno and CEO of Carebot, the start-up company developing a computer vision-based assistance system for healthcare and awarded by Forbes, Pfizer, Roche, and Deloitte.
Professor, Vice Dean for Education, Esa Räsänen, from Tampere University is a theoretical physicist, innovator and solution creator. Esa has utilized his expertise in computational physics in creating novel solutions for analyzing cardiac electrical activity.

SPARK Europe is the joint network of SPARK sites all over Europe including Israel: SPARK-BIH, SPARK Finland, SPARK FLI, SPARK Norway, SPARK Poland and SPARK Tel Aviv. European SPARK programs are members of SPARK Global network. The purpose of SPARK programs is to provide the education and mentorship necessary to advance research discoveries from the bench to the bedside, hence to increase the maturity of academic and clinical discoveries towards practical solutions that address unmet needs in the life science and health tech space. 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.
