Societal themes

Societal themes

Major societal challenges call for collaboration. HTSM works on three themes where technological innovation can make a difference. Always together with companies, government and knowledge institutions. Always aimed at applications that genuinely work in practice.

Our three themes are:

Green factory Making manufacturing more sustainable

Circularity and sustainability as drivers of innovation. Together with manufacturers we work on strengthening and greening production processes: smarter production, longer use of machinery and new business models. Always practice-oriented, always directly applicable.

Electric charging Energy transition

Energy storage and systems modelling as the key to the energy transition. We help organisations design and optimise energy systems, from hydrogen and batteries to smart energy hubs. We translate complex energy questions into working solutions.

Healthcare (MedTech)

Technology that moves healthcare forward. Together with healthcare organisations and companies we develop practical biotech and medtech solutions that contribute to accessible, affordable and future-proof care.
