The Institute of Innovation Research, Technology Management and Entrepreneurship (ITE) addresses issues related to the promotion of sustainable innovation in research and teaching. Based at the Faculty of Natural Sciences, we use the latest knowledge of science across disciplines and technologies to solve problems in business and society. We see the greatest potential at intersections, which is why we are particularly interested in looking at convergences at different levels: excellent knowledge, application, business field development and entrepreneurship.
