The innovation ecosystem

When technological innovations reach the right level of maturity, researchers can join forces with investors, start-ups, scale-ups, and partners to launch their technology in the market. Through the Tech Transfer programme we gather the right stakeholders together to bring innovations to life and make a direct impact on society. And, in doing so, we create future earning capacity for the Netherlands.

From tech to spin-off

In the Tech Transfer programme we look at whether we can turn an internal technology into a new company. Or that we can arrange a licensing agreement for an existing company. Within projects, we conduct market research, draw up a business plan and make agreements. After successfully completing the Technology Transfer programme, there is a spin-off with a validated value proposition and a business plan. Including a dedicated team and the latest technology with intellectual property rights.
