TECHNOLOGY AND SCIENCE
the innovation cycle We believe that scientific and technological progress is based on a purposeful and synergistic exploration of discoveries; therefore, we develop activities that begin with the generation of knowledge and conclude by giving back value to society.
our promise We are committed to internationally recognised, socially relevant research that has a high impact on industry, services and exports. We aim to bridge the gap between universities/polytechnic institutes and the world of business, public administration and society.
