Welcome

The Innovation Embassy was founded by Astrophysicist Erik Micheelsen.

The inspiration for creating a new environment for innovative knowledge sharing originated following Erik ́s academic experience at Rutherford Appleton Laboratory and CERN in Switzerland.

His previous work experience as a Technology Officer at the Danish company Coloplast A/S and consultancy work in Silicon Valley and London have also provided him with insights into different worlds.

New approaches to innovation and thinking benefit both creators and innovators. They become better skilled and handed new capabilities to navigate the challenging journey going forward and arrive at sustainable solutions.

The purpose was to show how we all can contribute to innovation. Out of 1500 concepts, 20 teams pitched for a jury and investors of which three were fundeded for further testing and investigation.

Themes and topics for discussion can be submitted to Erik for consideration and advanced tickets can be ordered from Event Brite.
