Joint research activities and co-funding
All joint research activities at Fraunhofer ICT have one thing in common: We guarantee for absolute discretion, whether you are looking for a customized polymer for a particular application, whether you would like to test and verify the concept of your newly developed engine or whether you need support optimizing a chemical process.
We can sign a non-disclosure agreement beforehand, if your business demands it. Together, we will define the scope of our cooperation, discuss the tasks, and then Fraunhofer ICT will make you an offer. All our efforts aim at solving your problem and introducing an innovation into your company or into the open market.
If your research project intersects with several areas of expertise, it might be helpful to acquire partners such as further Fraunhofer institutes, universities and companies. We can support you with access to the Fraunhofer network in Germany and worldwide.
You may even be eligible to have your research project co-funded by regional governments or the federal government in Germany, by the European Union or other political instances. Experts at Fraunhofer ICT will identify relevant instances for you and guide to through the process.
