Knowledge Transfer

The Knowledge Transfer Office (KTO) supports all researchers and research institutes in the process of knowledge transfer. We focus primarily on research and on creating value or impact with your work. We are here to guide you every step of the way. Our goal is to transfer knowledge in such a way that both society and your research benefit. We bridge the gap between research and practice. And we are there for start-up knowledge-intensive entrepreneurs - for instance via the services of pre-incubator The Launch. The Knowledge Transfer Office is part of Research & Impact.

Translate research into practice

As a researcher, it is important to share your work so that others can build on it. By publishing your research, you can make an impact with innovative innovations and ideas. In doing so, it is wise to consider different ways of sharing knowledge, such as starting a business or collaborating with suitable partners for further development, while ensuring that your knowledge is well protected.
