Description
INNOVENT is an external, non-profit, industrial research institution which functions without institutional funding. We are a legally registered association with membership stemming from the industry and scientific fields.
Our core competencies include Smart Surfaces, galvanic applications, simulation, magneto-optics and sensor technology as well as customer-specific analytical services. An extensive synthesis know-how and a broad spectrum of biological investigations complement our competencies.
INNOVENT organizes various conferences, such as: the ak-adp (User Forum Atmospheric Pressure Plasma), the ThGOT (Theme Days on Interfacial Engineering and Surface Technology), and the Forum Inn-O-Kultur. In addition, we manage various networks throughout Germany.
We pass our know-how on to bachelor's and master's students, as well as doctoral candidates who are in training as young professionals. Our qualified scientists offer companies further education in areas of scientific and industrial competence.
The institute is a founding member of the German Industrial Research Association Konrad Zuse. More than 70 industry-related research institutions are organized in this association with the aim of bringing more innovations from science into the economy.
