For researchers seeking to collaborate with industrial partners, the IXAnext program provides the Physics2Market Grant. This grant encourages knowledge utilisation, by helping researchers validate physics-related research. This is helpful when companies need further proof that a science-based concept or technique can indeed have a practical application before they agree to collaborate.
This financial instrument is closed for applications. The total available budget of €250,000 has been spent.
The IXAnext valorisation programme is made possible with a contribution of the City of Amsterdam.
