Economic and administrative foundations of a possible public funding of non-technical innovations.

Duration February 2016 – October 2016

Project manager Dr. René John

Client BMWi

Cooperation partner technopolis |group|, VDI/VDE-IT

The changes in production and working conditions strongly emphasize the importance of non-technical innovations, which often cannot be supported under the existing technology and innovation programs of the federal government. Open user-centric development and implementation processes are becoming increasingly important. Therefore, the project aims at a decision-optimized determination of such forms and the public funding needs as well as funding measures.

Study presentation & discussion “Non-technical innovations – What impulses does the market provide?
What is the role of the state?” on December 8, 2016, Rainmaking Loft Berlin.

Integrated sustainability assessment of alternative protein sources and analogs and transformation pathways of two selected alternatives.

Against the background of a growing global demand for proteins and at the same time significant negative impacts of the production of animal products, the focus of the project is on the exploration of alternative protein sources and analogues. The aim is to obtain an overview of current processes, raw materials and products for the provision of alternative proteins and analogues and to investigate, on the basis of a selection, how likely and desirable the diffusion of these alternatives is.
