Developments in innovation
The starting up of developments in new innovations is done either at own initiative or in co-operation with various parties and (supplying) companies. Within this context you may consider the development of new crops for (amongst others) pharmaceutical application, equipment, sensor technology, mechatronics, durable applications and cultivation systems. By monitoring and supporting new innovations on a practical scale, as is done in the case of LED lighting and the concept of ‘Het Nieuwe Telen’, the chances of successful development towards a marketable product or system can be increased.
Desk study
- Desk study of the available literature in order to inventory all available data on a crop, method or product.
- Feasibility studies for the implementation of investments or for obtaining finance.
- Market analyses or studies on production chains in order to assess and study the chances of successful introduction of a product in a market. It is also possible to have risk analyses performed.
Demonstrations
Demonstration projects that have an example function in the daily practice.
