How We Can Work Together

Cooperative Research

Cooperative research – in this case, the financing of the research project is divided equally. For example, one or more industrial partners can jointly finance 50% of the research project, while the remaining 50% is provided through funding or own resources of Virtual Vehicle Research GmbH.

Contract Research

Are you looking for customized solutions? For this very purpose, we offer contract research. We determine the questions and objectives of the research project together at the beginning of our collaboration. This allows us to facilitate knowledge transfer that specifically addresses the needs and challenges of our industrial partners.

Funded Research

We collaborate with a variety of national and international funding agencies to initiate and advance innovative research projects. Long-standing partners in the field of research funding include FFG, HEU, and many others.
