Two institutions of higher education in Jyväskylä, Finland were struggling in 2008 with how to increase commercialized research results, get more people involved, and help staff/students understand the role of innovation services as the institutions and regional innovation ecosystem had different individual goals. To address this, the institutions created an Academic Business Club to bring business insight and motivation into the science community to help change the innovation culture.
