Together we develop ideas for the future

Innovative small and medium-sized businesses, globally operating enterprises and excellent research and technology institutions collaborate in Industrial Collective Research (IGF) across sectors, focusing on fundamental research – and thus at a pre-competitive stage – to develop technologies in areas such as mobility, materials engineering, materials research and recycling, energy efficiency, security of supply and sustainability.

This systematic research into sustainable energy and powertrain systems, which incorporates a wide range of energy sources and energy converters, requires a large, collective network.

Industrial research and development benefits from the fact / field-based collaboration with the science community, universities and non-profit research institutions, on the future of technology. This creates innovative power in industry and excellence in research, teaching and learning. Without innovation funding, this kind of collaboration would be impossible.

The FVV conducts globally networked research into the technological and scientific foundations for climate neutrality and zero-impact emissions in sustainable energy conversion systems. Customer acceptance and competitiveness are also very important to us. In doing so, we always keep in mind societal expectations and the technological prerequisites for sustainable development.

Networked actions between manufacturers and suppliers, developers and scientists, leading industrial engineers, renowned researchers and excellent young talents promote cooperation in international innovation networks. This is very important to us. Contrary to purely project-related collaboration, Industrial Collective Research (Industrielle Gemeinschaftsforschung IGF) is geared towards lasting relations among all partners.
