#17 Lamin Ben Hamdane on cooperation models Hightech Ventures

Lamin has been in various roles in the hightech venturing ecosystem and in this episode, we will almost cover them all. As a mechanical engineer by training, he has been keen to pursue projects surrounded by uncertainty since the very start of his career. And after several business-oriented roles in small and big companies, he naturally ended up in the innovation ecosystem. Especially in roles that required building cooperative models between different players: business development and tech transfer at Fraunhofer and Oxford, Siemens Next 47, or his current position as Head of Start-Up Cooperation & Partnerships at Infineon. 
Due to all these different perspectives, we will learn from Lamin what is important when building the interface between big organizations and small ventures. We dive deeper into the recipe for success of the Oxford ecosystem and why it excels many others, globally. He also helps us understand the two fundamental cooperation models between startups and Infineon and Lamin also outlines concrete examples of ventures working on a more sustainable future.
