The main aim of the MIT scheme and also the deployment of innovation agents within Chemistry and BBE is to strengthen and connect the innovative power of SMEs and entrepreneurship in this sector with the program lines / roadmaps of the Knowledge- and Innovation Agenda. This commitment can contribute more quickly and effectively to the necessary innovations and to strengthening the industry in the field of Chemistry and BBE. Innovations, and therefore also the fields of activity of the SMEs involved, are often not limited to one sector. That is why, when deploying the innovation agents, attention will also be given to the interfaces with other sectors. The Communities of Innovation that are appointed in the top sector have considerable experience with this because of their participation from different sectors.
TKI Chemie has hired a number of Innovation Agents to provide consulting services to SME entrepreneurs.
The advice focuses on:
- innovation of products, processes or services
- the provision of technological assistance
- services for transferring technology
