Knowledge and technology transfer

As an institution of the Leibniz Association, we understand knowledge and technology transfer to mean communicating our knowledge to science, industry, politics and society. Consulting, mediation and application are the focus for us. We offer interfaces for networking and international exchange with various formats. We bring science, society, politics and business into conversation with each other and thus contribute to the knowledge-based further development of society.
