Dear Ladies and Gentlemen:
Merck KGaA will conduct from June 21-26, 2015, the 5th Merck Serono Innovation Cup Summer Camp, an initiative offering a chance for advanced students in life sciences and business administration programs to attend a one-week training program with Merck Serono professionals. This initiative is designed to support the professional development of post-graduate students interested in the pharmaceutical industry and also delivers new innovative approaches covering unmet medical need.
The Innovation Cup brings together a promising new generation of talent in a meeting of the generations with senior Merck Serono managers and researchers and accomplished Merck retirees. A video showing an overview of the event can be accessed here:

In addition, advanced MBA students or recent MBA graduates with an interest in the pharmaceutical business and a background in life sciences are also eligible. Postdocs can apply, too!
Participants have the chance to win with their team the Merck Serono Innovation Cup award – EUR 20,000 for the most convincing project plan worked out during the summer camp.
