New forms of citizen participation We develop new formats to involve citizens in the innovation process. Our aim is for dialogue to lead to creative ideas, so that new technologies are geared to the needs of society.
Exploration of International Potential for Collaboration and Competition We create indicator-based country analyses, which help you to better gauge international potential for competition and collaboration in the areas of science, education and innovation, and to plan measures in a targeted manner.
New, Agile Funding Formats We develop concepts for new funding formats, which address the changing needs of business and research undergoing digital transformation. To do so, we pool our expertise from project management, innovation research and foresight and evaluation, in order to develop – in co-creation processes – innovative and agile project funding models.

Through our involvement in national and international initiatives and networks, we have a large pool of experts from research, industry and politics.
Creating Momentum for the Future with New Topic Areas We identify topics and players that will be crucial for the future of your programmes. The focus here in on topic areas that determine the project funding of tomorrow. In this respect, we keep in mind the interaction of trends in technology, the economy and society, and also development of the countries that dominate these trends. To this end, we use data analysis methods, strategic foresight and trend scouting.

This means you are always informed of relevant trends in research and development, but also in business, politics and society.
