Innovation, communication and technology transfer
Innovation takes place when people, acting either alone or together, use their expertise in the widest sense to challenge established ways of thinking and behaving. It is about breaking out of habitual networks at an individual, organisational and society level. The Innovation Group conducts research and contributes towards technology transfer and innovative thinking and communication.
