  • Project management (from the idea to the finished product)
  • Network management

The first step: The initial analysis


Through a structured initial analysis, we ensure that the support options offered are precisely tailored to your specific needs and provide effective assistance.

As part of the initial analysis, we examine your questions and work with you to specify your individual requirements.

In a confidential preliminary discussion, we first analyze your questions and develop customized solutions with you. To do this, we can draw on an interdisciplinary team of experts and an extensive network.

You receive:

  • Guidance for technological decision-making issues
  • Concretisation of individual problems
  • Development of a structured further procedure

Next steps will be tailored to your needs:


Matchmaking

Are you looking for a partner to solve your problem? Take advantage of our strong network of industry, research and education and benefit from our detailed knowledge of the business! We offer you

  • an international, interdisciplinary network of industrial and research partners
  • access to experts, e.g. from the areas of raw materials, dispersing, inkjet, analytics, lightweight construction, medical technology

               

Innovation workshop

You want to expand your innovation potential?  You are looking for new markets? You know your customers' requirements? You would like to invest in new advanced technologies and innovations?

Then take advantage of our innovation workshop, adapted to your individual needs with elements such as brainstorming, innovation management, Thinking out of the box, troubleshooting, etc.

We bring all stakeholders together, management, R & D and, if desired, your partners and customers to take a 360-degree view of your innovation potential. We support you in your innovation strategy with our individual innovation workshop.

Project Management

Is it necessary to bring together partners from industry and research in order to clarify your individual question? We look after you from the idea to the finished product. We support you with the project definition, project support up to the complete project management and organisation.

We support start-up companies and small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) through integration into nanotechnology projects. We use synergies between the partners with the aim of generating products and solutions that are ready for the market. We support the partners through funding advice, public relations, project management, feasibility studies and market analysis. In this way, innovative products and R & D projects are created under targeted guidance from cooperations.

Implementation consulting

For small-medium sized enterprises (SMEs), it is generally very difficult to provide the required development services for a new development alone and to bear the commercial risks for this. The project enquiries that are submitted to Cluster Nanotechnology show that the pooling of the core skills from different sectors and the establishment of suitable contacts provide crucial impetus for competitive advantages. We accompany you with bilateral customer-specific consultations on projects and technologies and help you with funding and communication:

  • Knowledge acquisition: We provide independent technical information, market situations and evaluate future trends for you
  • Funding advice: We support you when looking for suitable funding pools and with the application process.
  • Technical advice: From implementation consulting to ramp-up management, we accompany you in your product development.
  • Networks: Your topic requires a stronger involvement of other companies? We are happy to build up your topic-specific network with you.
