Research and development

Translating innovative technologies and applications into practice provides companies with a competitive edge in the face of global competition. Steinbeis channels the findings of pre-competitive research and specific problems faced in industry into applied contractual research and development matched to the needs of business.
Top of the agenda on every project: the end-user and marketability, but also rapid implementation. Steinbeis employees are specialists in their field. They know how to take the findings of pure research, applied research and development, and apply it – in tune with business practice – to the specific issues faced in each customer project.
One reason why our centers are so successful is the close degree of cooperation they enjoy with other research and development bodies and universities. Another is the fact that they operate independently on an organizational and financial level. Our structure is ideally suited to the wealth of experience of our professors, most of whom head up research and development at our centers. As a result we can provide companies with speedy access to the very latest findings and scientific insights – without intermediaries and without unnecessary bureaucracy.
Our portfolio of services ranges from product optimization, to improving processes and systems, integrating emerging technology into existing set-ups and even completely new developments.
