VTT helps its customers and partners to create business from technology and thus to promote the wellbeing of society as a whole.
VTT possesses a broad range of scientific expertise and multitechnological know-how that it applies and combines to create globally competitive technologies. The new technological opportunities brought about by strategic research can be exploited in collaboration with our customers and partners.
VTT supports innovation by means of technology foresight work and roadmaps, which open a window on future technological possibilities and show the way to new markets and business opportunities.
Innovations can also be services, processes, organizational structures, business models, brands, marketing channels, and so on. Innovations may also be based on the application of old technologies for new purposes or in new markets.
VTT’s research activities produce inventions, software and other technology that can be protected by intellectual property rights (IPR). Some of these results are transferred to customers according to conditions stipulated in assignment agreements, whereas, some increase VTT’s IPR property.
VTT offers IPR and other technology for companies to utilize. Technology can be sold or licensed with different conditions. At VTT we can assist technology commercialisation with tailored further development projects and commercialisation analyses.
Our technology can also play a central role in the business of a new spin-off company or joint venture.
