INNOVATION AND ENTREPRENEURSHIP

Bringing ideas and inventions into the world

DTU has one of the most well-developed eco systems for innovation and entrepreneurship among technical universities in Europe. This ecosystem brings new ideas and inventions from the classrooms and research laboratories into the real world. Student innovation One of our most significant contributions to society is the innovative and entrepreneurial mindset of our students. A mindset they bring with them when they are employed in companies and organizations. Innovation and entrepreneurship are integrated into our Study Programmes, mandatory courses, and electives. Through projects, events, internships, and student jobs, our students gain experience and contacts within the business community. Business collaboration DTU has long-term, in-depth experience working with companies and organizations. Its wide range of collaborations include strategic research collaborations, continuing education, student projects, and conferences. We offer collaboration and partnership opportunities for the business community, who prefer DTU’s collaborative and innovative approach. We collaborate across academic

disciplines to build innovative solutions to societal challenges. In 2020, DTU had 1,794 collaborative research projects with companies. Start-ups In 2020, our students and employees continued creating start-ups that translate innovative ideas into solutions that benefit society. In 2020, 55 new start-ups were established—47 were student startups, 8 were established by employees. Commercialization In 2020, DTU researchers provided 120 new inventions expected to create commercial value. 52 sales, license, and option agreements were concluded on 62 inventions—the highest number recorded at DTU in a single year. DTU has a portfolio of 196 active contracts on the utilization of intellectual property rights. For the first time in the history of the University, the income from these agreements exceeds the expenditures on IPR protection.

a vibrant community of students, start-ups, and researchers collaborating across disciplines with businesses and organizations. Activities and services include business acceleration and funding for deep tech start-ups, advanced prototyping facilities, inspiring events, sprints, and hackathons. 2020 saw the opening of a 2,800 m² expansion of DTU Skylab’s facilities, which now totals more than 5,000 m². The facilities include labs, workshops, project rooms, co-working space, a start-up incubator, two auditoriums, and a prominent Developer Hall.

SCIENTIFIC ADVICE

A unique Danish model for the benefit of society

DTU offers scientific advice to public sector authorities, industries, and international institutions. The activities contribute significantly to knowledge transfer and informed decision-making in society.

PCR diagnostics and automation made it possible to accommodate society’s urgent need for test capacity, and quickly build a system with the capacity to handle 10,000 daily COVID-19 samples.

National scientific advice DTU currently has strategic partnerships with Danish authorities on food safety, chemicals, aquatic resources, diagnostics, waste management, geodetics, traffic infrastructure, and radioactivity.

Through the research project HOPE, researchers, using behavioural data, investigated how the population responds to COVID-19 restrictions. This research helps authorities understand the link between crisis management, the population’s behaviour, and the prevalence of infection in society.

Our advisory services include complex problem solving, risk characterization for informed standard setting, development of surveillance systems for ongoing risk assessments, and diagnostic capacity for contingency planning and crisis resolution. Scientific advice from universities, a unique Danish model, is beneficial to society because it provides synergy between university research and applied research, as well as an in-depth understanding of sector-specific challenges, acquired through extensive collaborations with our strategic partners.

Additionally, DTU researchers have been involved in developing mathematics and codes in a model that can predict developments in COVID-19. As part of Statens Serum Institut’s expert group, DTU contributes to the development of a new mathematical model that calculates how the coronavirus epidemic will develop. This model forms the basis for Statens Serum Institut, the Danish Government, and the Danish Parliament recommendations.

During the 2020 COVID-19 pandemic, DTU has played a vital role in infection detection, containment, and prediction. DTU’s in-depth experience with

New Arctic research vessel In 2020, the Danish government granted DTU EUR 23 million for part-financing of a new ocean-going

research vessel to replace the current research ship. The new research ship will serve the longterm needs of the Danish research communities for multidisciplinary research on vessel capacity at sea and in the Arctic and will contribute to the understanding of the climate and consequences of climate change. International scientific advice In addition to DTU’s national advisory activities, the University provides scientific advice to international authorities and organizations. The UNEP DTU Partnership provides advice on the transition towards lower carbon development paths, and supports integration of climate resilience in national development through in-depth research, policy analysis, and capacity building activities. DTU is designated as a special EU reference laboratory in five different areas—including the fields of fish diseases and antimicrobial resistance.

At the beginning of the COVID-19 pandemic, DTU’s Center for Diagnostics very quickly reorganized and expanded its laboratory capacity so the University could meet society’s urgent need for testing.
