OPENINNOTRAIN

OpenInnoTrain is a research project focused on open innovation and research translation between academia and industry with a 22-member research consortium across several countries. The project aims at enabling the untapped potential of European university researchers in getting their research outcomes to the market within the University-Industry Cooperation (UIC) framework in the sectors of FinTech, Industry 4.0, CleanTech and FoodTech. This Open Innovation approach for research translation is the prerequisite for societal impact through value creation by embedding research-generated knowledge into practices, transforming knowledge made available in academic publications to new or improved products and services and behavioural changes...
