Combining bright young talent with proven industry experience
At Merck Serono, we believe that bringing generations together offers the potential to uncover the next great innovation in medical science. With the Merck Serono Innovation Cup 2013, we are combining our commitment to delivering breakthrough medical solutions with our belief that people really can make a difference.

The Innovation Cup brings together a promising new generation of talent from life sciences and business administration academia in a meeting of the minds with Merck Serono senior management and external experts. It’s all happening at the third annual Summer Innovation Camp to be held near Frankfurt, Germany in August 2013.

What’s in it for me?
If you are a post-graduate student with an interest in the pharmaceutical industry, the Merck Serono Innovation Cup could be your chance to gain in-depth knowledge about pharmaceutical research and development, to network with top students from around the world and build a business case together with experienced professionals. If your project is selected by our grand jury, your team will win a prize of EUR 10,000!

How do I apply?
Complete a brief questionnaire and submit your resume online by March 15, 2013.

If selected, you will be invited to sign the participants’ agreement and attend the Innovation Summer Camp in Seeheim-Jugenheim, Germany from August 25 to 30, 2013.  Travel, accommodation and food expenses will be paid by Merck Serono.
