What does it take to turn excellent research into real societal impact? According to Conny Schneider, the answer starts with communication, collaboration and strong innovation networks!

​

In the latest episode of our Innovation Leaders series, we are delighted to introduce Conny Schneider, Coordinator of the NanoPrecMed Consortium and Science Communication Lead at the Ludwig Boltzmann Institute for Traumatology (LBI Trauma), one of the key partners of the InnovPrecMed consortium.

​

With a background in biotechnology and tissue engineering, Conny combines first-hand research experience with a passion for making science accessible and connecting researchers across disciplines, institutions and countries. She believes that scientific excellence alone is not enough – research creates the greatest value when scientists are equipped to communicate their discoveries, engage with stakeholders and translate knowledge into societal impact.

​

This vision closely aligns with the mission of InnovPrecMed. Through education in innovation, entrepreneurship and technology transfer, InnovPrecMed empowers researchers to maximise the impact of their research beyond academia. Together with initiatives such as NanoPrecMed, the two projects create complementary pathways that strengthen innovation ecosystems and accelerate the translation of research into healthcare solutions.

​

At InnovPrecMed, we believe that innovation is not driven by technology alone – it is driven by people who connect ideas, disciplines and organisations. Conny Schneider is one of those people.
