On 2 December 2020, a new trademark of the Biology Centre CAS was entered in the trademark register – PROVEN IN THE TROPICS. The trademark " PROVEN IN THE TROPICS " will be awarded to technologies and products that will prove successful in the demanding conditions of Papua New Guinea, where a research center founded by prof. Vojtěch Novotný has been operating for more than 20 years. However, all BC scientists can participate, if they are interested in testing pre-agreed products during their research expeditions in other tropical destinations.
The Technology Transfer Office will ensure communication with potential applicants from among companies that will want to test their products in extreme conditions and, in cooperation with BC scientists, will also set criteria for evaluation and subsequent granting of the trademark.
If you are interested, do not hesitate to contact us with suggestions for possible technologies or services that could be tested, as well as your personal participation in proving in the tropics.
