TECHNOLOGY TRANSFER

Transferring our research into applications and products is one of CISPA's core tasks. In this way, we ensure that the economy and society at large can benefit from pioneering innovations, state-of-the-art technologies and our latest research findings. We share our research results with the public through knowledge transfer, while also making them amenable to commercial utilization through technology transfer.

In technology transfer, CISPA particularly focuses on startups and entrepreneurship, intellectual property rights and licenses as well as research cooperation with industry. Transfer takes the form of either application-oriented solutions, e.g. those resulting from research cooperation, or startups that implement groundbreaking ideas derived from foundational research. These main foci are supplemented by strategic partnerships with industrial corporations, in which CISPA works on future-oriented topics in diverse areas of technology transfer together with its partners.

RESEARCH COOPERATIONS

One focus of technology transfer at CISPA lies on research cooperation with commercial enterprises, from startups to SMEs and large companies. These joint efforts take their cue from the foundational research at CISPA and are geared towards gaining new insights. Our cooperations take place at eye level, with all participants striving toward a common goal. Our industrial partners benefit from new technologies, scientific results and know-how that can form the basis for new products and processes. CISPA in turn benefits from receiving impulses and perspectives from industry and economy.

STARTUPS UND ENTREPRENEURSHIP

Foundational research is the basis for many innovations. Startups are one way of creating added value for society and the economy by commercializing these innovations. This is why CISPA builds up a venture ecosystem and supports researchers in transferring their research results into new business models. The CISPA Incubator supports early-stage venture teams with a broad range of workshops and consulting services. This is how CISPA fosters the cybersecurity entrepreneurship of tomorrow.

PRODUCT LABS

The Product Labs department develops prototypes for CISPA. They design and implement systems and software using agile design and development methods.
