Let your question take flight

The Strength of Swarm Intelligence

The strength of a swarm lies in the fact that many individuals contribute diverse knowledge.
What may be a new challenge for your company is something another company may have already experienced. A suitable approach might come from a different industry, from research, or from someone you haven’t met yet. For this to happen, this distributed knowledge must come together. Knowledge transfer intermediaries facilitate this connection.

How a Question Reaches the Swarm

Technology transfer intermediaries operate at the intersections of the Bavarian innovation system. These include, for example, technology transfer offices at universities, clusters, technology and startup centers, chambers of commerce, as well as funding and consulting organizations.
They navigate the spaces between business, academia, technology, and innovation, thereby bringing together knowledge from diverse fields.
They don’t need to know the answer themselves. What matters is that they know where a question might fit in: with a relevant topic, a proven approach, or someone who is already a step ahead.
Because knowledge transfer intermediaries are also networked with one another, a question can travel through different spheres of knowledge and experience. Its reach expands.

Which question will you let the swarm tackle?

What the swarm knows becomes apparent when a question passes through it. This is especially true for questions where the knowledge of any single individual might not be sufficient.”
Test the swarm intelligence of the knowledge transfer intermediaries, let your question travel further, and unlock new perspectives, experiences, and potential solutions for your question.
Whether it’s digitalization, skilled workers, innovation, collaboration, funding, sustainability, or technology transfer: Send your question our way, and we’ll bring you into the transfer community.
