The Innovation Hub of the ZEISS Group and the Karlsruhe Institute of Technology (KIT) enables employees of both institutions to jointly develop innovative solutions in the following areas: "Nano and Micro Photonics", "Sensor Systems and Precision Measurement" as well as "Medical and Bio Technologies". The aim of the project is to promote ideas, refine them in proof-of-concept projects and ultimately make them useful to society as independent spin-offs or as part of the ZEISS Group.

QCells and HZB | European Pilot for the Industrial Production of Tandem Photovoltaic Cells

The four-year project, funded by the European Union, is jointly coordinated by QCells and Helmholtz-Zentrum Berlin. The goal is to advance perovskite/silicon tandem photovoltaic (PV) technology on its path to market introduction and mass production to facilitate the EU's ambitious climate goals. "At HZB, we have developed tandem technology to world-record levels at the laboratory scale. We now look forward to working with partners from academia and industry in the PEPPERONI consortium to jointly scale up and transfer this new and promising technology to industry." - Bernd Stannowski, HZB

Airbus and CISPA| Competence Center for Cybersecurity and Trustworthy Artificial Intelligence

The collaboration with the Helmholtz Center for Information Security (CISPA) enables Airbus to tap into the know-how of CISPA's experts and consequently offers CISPA exciting new opportunities to put its research into practice. "Collaborating with such a renowned German research institution as CISPA is an important part of our strategy to strengthen capabilities and competencies in cybersecurity. We are determined to invest today in the technologies and resources that will enable us to be at the forefront of tomorrow's increasingly digital challenges. To achieve this goal, we are carefully selecting the right partners." - Evert Dudok, Executive Vice President Connected Intelligence at Airbus Defence and Space

The competence center at St. Ingbert is part of the "CISPA Innovation Campus".
