Ovizio Imaging Systems, a quantitative microscopic imaging spin-off of the Université Libre de Bruxelles, Belgium, was founded in the beginning of 2010 by Philip Mathuis, Serge Jooris, Prof. Frank Dubois and Dr. Catherine Yourassowky.

During my talk I will present the story of how an idea, emerged from the research labs of the University made it to a manufactured and sold product.

It will also be focused on choices one has to make during the start-up phase and methodologies that can be applied in many different settings.
