About the FORTH Liaison Office
The FORTH Liaison office supports the exploitation of FORTH-based research results
and facilitates the creation of new research and development partnerships with companies
and other academic organizations in Greece and abroad. The commercialization of such
research results can be realized through licensing agreements, setting-up of spin-off
companies and the provision of specialized services for the private and public sector
in Greece and abroad.
It operates as a division of the
FORTH Central Administration
unit while for its operation is supported by the
PRAXI Network, a strategic alliance of FORTH with the with the
Hellenic Federation of Enterprises (SEV) and
the Federation of Industries of Northern Greece (FING).
This collaboration ensures access to different international supporting networks
and mechanisms i.e. the Enterprise Europe Network
(for technology transfer and European R&D projects).
In addition the FORTH Liaison office operates in close collaboration with the
Science and Technology Park – Crete (StepC)
which can ideally host any spin-off activity originating from the research activities of FORTH.
Any Greek or foreign company that foresee a research, technological or entrepreneurial
collaboration with FORTH can contact the Liaison office in order to identify the
optimal partnering laboratory. You can
browse here a number of
FORTH technologies which are already available for technology transfer agreements.
