Creativity and innovation are the driving force behind the exchange of ideas. Collaborative research is an optimal vehicle for sharing knowledge and, hence, has always been at the heart of our research and development strategy. Over the last 15 years, we have built a large network of technology and academic partners in which every partner contributes and benefits in his field of expertise to national and European research strategies. Complementary goals and the joining of forces enable us to meet challenging objectives much quicker.
Following are our current and past research projects. You will find a short summary of each project. Further information (e.g. links to participating partners) can be obtained from the respective homepages.
