IdeaSquare as a shortcut between conceptualising and prototyping
Both working on the LHCb calorimeter, Matteo Salomoni and Kacper Jama used IdeaSquare extensively to develop new calorimeter modules that will be installed during the long shutdown 3. In this letter, they explain how crucial it was for them to be able to come and prototype at IdeaSquare for their project.

Using experimentation to boost University-Industry collaboration
Collaboration between universities and industry is essential for transforming academic research into practical innovations that can impact the real world. However, the strategies used to make these collaborations possible have often lacked rigorous testing. This has led to uncertainty about which approaches work best in helping researchers and businesses partner effectively.
