Innovation Policy and Transfer Design

The Innovation Policy and Transfer Design Unit provides evidence-based support to policy makers, companies and the transfer community in making decisions for a sustainable transformation of innovation systems and organizations. Our application-oriented research promotes the development of resilient innovation and start-up ecosystems. Our range of services includes the strategic planning and development of cooperation, transfer and funding activities, as well as the support and design of innovation policy tools.

  • We design, research and evaluate national and international innovation promotion tools for policy makers through supporting research projects and evaluations.
  • Companies and associations benefit from our research expertise through studies, the development of transfer and networking formats, technology analyses and customized web applications.
  • We support the transfer community in the design and evaluation of transfer strategies and the analysis of exploitation potential to increase the social and regional impact of research results.

Our transdisciplinary team conducts application-oriented and independent research. We integrate the latest findings from innovation and behavioral economics, transfer research and economic policy. We place great importance on communicating our results in a comprehensible and practice-oriented manner.

Researcher from Leipzig's Fraunhofer institute support regional development in Saxony's lignite district

Researchers at Fraunhofer IMW are helping to shape structural change in Saxony's lignite mining regions in Lusatia and Central Germany. In the GENESIS research project funded by the German government, a data-based twin of the mining districts is being developed in close cooperation with the Saxon State Ministry for Regional Development (SMR).

Launch of Fraunhofer activity map: quantum computing funding landscape

The Fraunhofer activity map of the German quantum computing funding landscape, which was developed in the research project Quantum Ecosystem Deutschland Q.E.D. at Fraunhofer IMW, is now available online for all interested: www.quantencomputing-deutschland.de

The interactive map illustrates which organizations in Germany are publicly funded in the field of quantum computing. By clicking on an organization, a comprehensive insight into the projects worked on, the total amount of funding received and the cooperative relationships established is provided.

The online database has been visually enhanced. The funded projects, their objectives and the associated partner network can be accessed quickly and easily. In addition, the network ties created by the funded measures are displayed. This makes an essential part of the quantum computing ecosystem visible, tangible and comprehensible point by point.

 

The data on which the activity map is based comes on the one hand from the comprehensive project funding data of the federal government's funding catalog, and on the other hand from supplies from the individual federal states. Furthermore, projects funded by Horizon Europe are mapped. The European funding landscape is thus presented in an integrated manner.
