Collaboration & Value Creation
Research results only create value when they are applied within society. That is why Kumara University collaborates closely with businesses & local inhabitants to make sure that we can contribute to real world well-being.
The Kumara way of adding value:
-
Open: We don’t think in borders or boundaries. Our facilities are openly available to everyone. When we design solutions we think of global context.
-
Cooperative: We believe that social & natural sciences are both needed for deep, future-resilient inventions. Everyone can have a brilliant idea. It’s in our DNA to help these ideas flourish.
