Drawing on experiences fro m Brazil\, Dr. Renata de Lima and Dr. Leonardo Fernandes Fraceto will shar e how multidisciplinary approaches—integrating nanotechnology\, biotechnol ogy\, and environmental sciences—have enabled the development of innovativ e\, bio-based agricultural inputs. The presentation will showcase case stu dies\, focusing on strategies for advancing technologies beyond the labora tory\, while highlighting the critical role of university–industry collabo ration and addressing key challenges and gaps in the innovation process. T hese examples demonstrate how university-driven science can lead to practi cal solutions that reduce environmental impact\, enhance resource efficien cy\, and promote optimal agronomic practices.\n\nSpeakers:\n\nDr. Renata d e Lima is a professor and researcher at UNISO\, specializing in nanotechno logy\, environmental sciences\, and biotechnology. She leads Labiton\, col laborates across academia and industry\, and is CEO of two nanotech compan ies.\n\n \n\n \n\n \n\nDr. Leonardo Fernandes Fraceto is a professor at UN ESP and coordinates major research initiatives in biodiversity and sustain able agriculture. His work integrates nanotechnology with environmental an d agricultural innovation through global academic and industrial collabora tions.\n\n \n\n \n\nRegister Now: https://mcgill.ca/x/ina\n\n \n\n \n\n \n DTSTART:20250825T181500Z DTEND:20250825T193000Z SUMMARY:Bridging Academia and Industry: Innovation Pathways from Biodiversi ty to Sustainable Agriculture URL:/engineering/channels/event/bridging-academia-and- industry-innovation-pathways-biodiversity-sustainable-agriculture-366299 END:VEVENT END:VCALENDAR
