In developing innovations, TU/e enjoys a long-standing and close cooperation with industry. Accordingly, valorization is one of the spearheads of our policy. TU/e enjoys various forms of cooperation with trade and industry. These range from strategic partnerships to contract research and the formation of consortia for applying for subsidies, often European.

Number one in cooperation with industry
This close cooperation is extremely successful. Evidence of this is provided by TU/e’s placement in the 2009 Leiden Ranking, published by the Center for Science and Technology Studies (CWTS), as the global leader in the field of industry cooperation.
