The objective of this call is to initiate collaboration projects that ensure that novelty developed in an academic or research context achieves its full potential in production and end-user contexts.
We are looking to support collaborations aimed at, but not limited to:
- The industrialization of research prototypes, developed for instance in academic contexts, in the form of data products or licensable software with clear market potential.
- The adoption of data science solutions designed by academic/research organizations in public sector entities such as cantonal administrations or federal offices, benefiting their end-users.
- The translation of machine learning models created in specific domains, such as R&D teams or clinical research, into robust applications benefiting specific end-users, such as practitioners and their patients.
Especially welcome are projects in, but not limited to, the following domains:
- Energy and sustainability: sustainable manufacturing, energy forecasting and optimization, sustainable environments and mobility.
- Health and biomedical: biomedical data science, precision medicine and collaborative frameworks for patient welfare.
- Societal transformation: enablement of public administration for better serving Swiss-based population; public/social service and humanitarian-focused organizations.
