For bigger tasks: industrial joint research
More far-reaching development subjects can be dealt with in the form of joint research projects. This kind of research can tackle fundamental or application-related problems. IKV has a great deal of experience in drawing up relevant research topics and provides the necessary assistance with identifying a suitable project format. If you tell us about your needs, we can develop a research project together.
