Research and Innovation

Innovation is part of NTU’s DNA. With our creative people, cutting-edge tools and robust processes, NTU finds new solutions to complex problems for the benefit of communities. NTU puts a strong focus on internal Innovation leading to constant improvement in our work as well as stand-alone Research and Innovation projects, where together with our partners, we create, develop, test and exploit new solutions. NTU has been extensively working on the research and innovation projects with EIT-Climate KIC, on Horizon Europe (and its precedent programmes FP5, FP6, FP7, Horizon 2020), support to Innovative Fund applications, and the Connecting Europe Facility (CEF) – to name a few.

Our experience refers to all stages of the innovation projects.

NTU team has over 15 years of experience in Research & Innovation projects and consists of early stage researchers and recognized researchers with PhD degrees.
