The rapid advancement of technology represents the greatest challenge for businesses. The transfer of technology and knowledge clears the direct road to innovation for you.
We will visit you at your business, analyse the challenges or develop jointly with you new ideas and approaches to solutions for technological problems.
We develop concepts with you for projects and research strategies, facilitate access to current technological know-how, and manage transfer projects.
Our service range covers the analysis of the problem, multi-disciplinary forum discussions as well as creative discussions with experts, holding company-internal workshops, and structuring R&D development projects.
The long-term Science- Fit Initiative is one good example of this.
Successful enterprises today are in touch with universities in order to take the lead in innovation by means of future-oriented research.
The Research & Innovation Service is the contact point, coordinator and partner for cooperative partnerships between the department chairs of Montanuniversität and private businesses.
We organise discussion forums with selected experts of Montanuniversität.
For all those interested, we organise visits to the institute so you can get an impression of the topical fields that are relevant to you, take a look at the research infrastructure, and get a chance to speak with researchers about the latest state of the art.
We offer inhouse-training on request.
Take this opportunity to get to know us, the team of the Research & Innovation Service, and find out more about future technologies.
Technology transfer is subject to constant further development in terms of methods as well as technology. We work together with enterprises on demanding and complex topics in cooperative transfer projects.
For this purpose, the technology transfer team actively deigns projects with cooperation clusters from industry and research.
We are primarily focused on interdisciplinary projects involving several department chairs. These are frequently
- pilot projects such as: addmanu
- Transfer projects such as: Opt_Solutions
or
- European projects such as: IAMRRI
In addition:
- Safe&Sustainable by Design SSbD Roadmap
- Materials 2030 Roadmap of the EU
- Austrian Materials Foresight
- Foresight is combined with stakeholder involvement in IAMRRI
The results are many impulses and opportunities for research and targeted innovation.
Our offer for the drafting of studies, roadmaps or foresights targets both individual businesses as well as large consortia of partners from the private economy, science and public administration.
We have industry and technology know-how and are actively involved in national and international networks and forums.
This access to a large variety cooperation partners in science and the economy in Austria as well as internationally allows us to contribute to setting the framework conditions and outlining the subject-matters.
This includes activities with stakeholders such as government ministries or public administration, international corporations, and/or research institutes, associations, networks, and clusters besides the civil society.
