How do we accelerate the energy transition; what should the innovation agenda look like; and what type of fighter aircraft does the Dutch military need? Many parties are involved in resolving major societal issues. We help government, sectors, and organisations to make decisions.

Societal issues

At TNO, we bring together all conceivable disciplines to tackle cross-sector issues such as mobility, circularity, and energy. Some of the questions we deal with are:

  • What should the innovation agenda of the European Union (EU) and the Netherlands look like?
  • How do we accelerate the energy transition?
  • What new type of fighter aircraft or submarine does the Dutch military need?
  • What are the costs and does it create new business activity and employment?
  • What legal framework is needed to make safe autonomous driving a reality?
  • How can the use of data help tackle societal challenges such as juvenile delinquency?

We help public authorities, sectors, and organisations make the necessary decisions with various forms of decision support. Because without decisions, there’s no investment, and without investment, there’s no innovation.
