These guidelines are part of the WUR policy on Intellectual Property & Value Creation.

Value Creation Community

The WDCC organizes the Value Creation Community to address the opportunities and challenges of value creation with data science and AI together. Within this community we maintain a portfolio of data science and AI applications at WUR, explore strategic market opportunities and develop building blocks for advancing intellectual property, open source licensing, new business cases and spin-offs.
