Thematic Technology Transfer (TTT) enables researchers to take their research-based ideas to the next level, validate them, and establish successful spin-offs. To stimulate, support, and expedite the development of promising AI spin-offs, the university Knowledge Transfer Offices (KTOs) are joining forces with national research institute CWI and key partner LUMO Labs.
