Shaping technology transfer together

TRANSFER experience

The exchange of ideas, knowledge and technologies is a key success factor for innovation. The transfer of knowledge and technology between science and industry is of particular importance for Bavaria's ability to innovate.

The transfer landscape in Bavaria comprises a large number of important players: universities and colleges (with their transfer offices), technology and start-up centers, clusters, networks, institutions such as BayStartup or the Bavarian Research and Innovation Agency, and much more. As the Bavarian Society for Innovation and Knowledge and Technology Transfer, Bayern Innovativ aims to play a guiding role in transfer and thus create added value for all stakeholders in knowledge and technology transfer.

To this end, Bayern Innovativ offers a platform for networking all stakeholders with the TRANSFERleben event. With the Expert Network Bavaria, Bayern Innovativ also uses the possibilities of artificial intelligence to digitally accelerate the transfer of knowledge and technology within the Bavarian innovation ecosystem.

Bayern Innovativ: Networker and guide for technology transfer

For companies, Bayern Innovativ is the thematic guide that brings companies together with the right partners, e.g. transfer offices, and strategically connects them in networks. Bayern Innovativ is therefore a networker within the ecosystem on the one hand and a guide for companies on the other.

Our vision is to further develop knowledge and technology transfer together with all stakeholders to increase innovation activity in Bavaria.

As a pilot, we want to approach the topics openly, provide impetus and offer methodical support. To this end, we work together with all transfer stakeholders on important topics and issues, including Methods and instruments of transfer, New approaches for the further development of transfer, Measuring the output of transfer, Developing a roadmap for transfer in Bavaria, and much more.

How can we further develop knowledge and technology transfer? Only together and in close cooperation with you!

Would you like to work on these topics? Do you have valuable impulses and ideas? Then get in touch with us! As a guide, we connect you with the right partners and provide impetus for the topics.
