We are Innovation Exchange Amsterdam
IXA in short. We are the knowledge transfer office – a service – of the four major Amsterdam knowledge institutions: Amsterdam UMC, Hogeschool van Amsterdam, Universiteit van Amsterdam, and Vrije Universiteit Amsterdam.
Each institution has its own dedicated IXA team, with its own services.
We are the valorisation expertise centre
- We support Amsterdam universities (HBO and WO) and their staff – our colleagues – to transform academic and applied research and knowledge into impactful applications and innovations.
- We guide companies and organisations towards collaboration with researchers.
In this way, we support the transformation of scientific knowledge into solutions that contribute to a better world.
