Technology transfer
The NCCR Microbiomes aims to foster the development of new technologies and industrial applications from all its work packages. To this end, the following measures will be implemented:
- identifying and discussing opportunities resulting from each of the partners’ research within the NCCR Microbiomes
- promoting spin-off activities by NCCR students and collaborators through NCCR grants
- identifying and helping third-party interests and the private sector to associate with NCCR developments
- building strong links with companies and startups with interests in nutraceutical, pharmaceutical or microbiome products
- identifying and managing intellectual property
- holding regular meetings with stakeholders
