RETINA

PROJECT GOAL

The aim of the project is to create easy and efficient access to research and innovation infrastructure for companies in the border region Austria - Slovenia. This will be particularly useful for the development of new materials for industrial applications (energy storage, electronics, pharmaceuticals, aerospace, etc.).

The available research infrastructure for the development of new products should be presented in a transparent way and provide companies with fast access to measurements and analyses. The willingness of companies to invest in research should be increased and contribute to improving competitiveness.

To achieve this objective, the project will organize information events, laboratory visits and pilot actions in collaboration with industry and research centers. The activities are aimed at scientific partners, knowledge transfer agents, industries and decision-makers in order to maximize the impact.
