Services and infrastructure for practice

The Center of Excellence Logistics and IT provides companies with a wide range of specialized services aimed at quickly and effectively translating innovations from research into practice. In doing so, it strengthens the performance and competitiveness of companies in the fields of logistics, production, and IT.

Our services

Putting research into practice

The aim of the transfer projects is to put research into practice. The projects are funded for six months, after which many of them can offer their services directly on the market or license their products.
