Research, teaching and the provision of knowledge – these are the essential tasks – missions<\/em> – of universities. The Knowledge Transfer Center West (WTZ West), a network of eleven West-Austrian universities, also takes care of this so-called “third mission”.<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n In science, research and training of young scientists have always been the core tasks of every university. But how the provision of knowledge can be professionalized and moreover, who dedicates him- or herself to this task raises challenging questions. Especially as the provision and transfer of knowledge and technology becomes more complex and time-consuming. <\/span><\/p>\n It is all the more important to put knowledge transfer on top of the academic to-do list. Six universities, including associated partners, joined forces in 2014 in Upper Austria, Salzburg and Tyrol to form the Knowledge Transfer Center West together. <\/span><\/p>\n Beginning with the second phase, starting in 2019, the partnership even grew. Starting in autumn 2022 four The Knowledge Transfer Centre West (WTZ West) is Western Austria\u2019s most important competence centre for academic knowledge and technology transfer. Our aim is to optimize cooperation between the individual universities and improve their interfaces with economy and society. Through joint projects and activities, we seek to intensify knowledge and technology transfer in a sustainable way, identifying exploitation potentials and making use of synergies.<\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][et_pb_column type=”1_3″ _builder_version=”3.25″ custom_padding=”|||” global_colors_info=”{}” custom_padding__hover=”|||”][et_pb_image src=”https:\/\/wtz-west.at\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/07\/alle-partner3.png” alt=”Partneruniversit\u00e4ten des WTZ West.” title_text=”Partneruniversit\u00e4ten des WTZ West.” align_tablet=”center” align_last_edited=”on|desktop” admin_label=”universitaeten” _builder_version=”3.23″ animation=”off” sticky=”off” global_colors_info=”{}”][\/et_pb_image][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][\/et_pb_section][et_pb_section fb_built=”1″ _builder_version=”4.9.11″ _module_preset=”default”][et_pb_row _builder_version=”4.9.11″ _module_preset=”default”][et_pb_column _builder_version=”4.9.11″ _module_preset=”default” type=”4_4″][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][\/et_pb_section][et_pb_section fb_built=”1″ _builder_version=”3.22″ global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_row _builder_version=”3.25″ background_size=”initial” background_position=”top_left” background_repeat=”repeat” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_column type=”4_4″ _builder_version=”3.25″ custom_padding=”|||” global_colors_info=”{}” custom_padding__hover=”|||”][et_pb_divider show_divider=”off” disabled_on=”on|on|off” admin_label=”Teiler” _builder_version=”3.23.4″ height=”25px” global_colors_info=”{}”][\/et_pb_divider][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][\/et_pb_section]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" About us Get to know the Knowledge Transfer Centre West Find out who we are and what we stand for!

Mit Unterst\u00fctzung des bmwfw und der AWS Austria schlossen sich 2014 sechs f\u00fchrende Hochschulen und ihre assoziierten Partner zusammen, um eine gemeinsame Wissenskultur zu schaffen.<\/p> Gemeinsam haben wir es uns zur Aufgabe gemacht, sowohl die Zusammenarbeit der Universit\u00e4ten untereinander als auch die Schnittstellen zu Wirtschaft und Gesellschaft zu optimieren. Durch gemeinsame Aktionen und Ma\u00dfnahmen wollen wir so den Wissens- und Technologietransfer nachhaltig intensivieren, Verwertungspotentiale erschlie\u00dfen und m\u00f6gliche Synergien nutzen.<\/p> Ein besonderes Anliegen ist uns dabei der Wissenstransfer in Bereichen, die \u00fcber eine reine Kommerzialisierung hinausgehen. Einer unserer Schwerpunkte liegt deshalb auf dem Gebiet der Geistes-, Sozial- und Kulturwissenschaften und der Kunst, die oftmals wichtige Grundlagen f\u00fcr soziale Innovationen darstellen. Durch die Besch\u00e4ftigung mit Themen wie Entrepreneurship oder zukunftsorientierten Urheberrechtsfragen wollen wir so neue Standards des transdisziplin\u00e4ren Arbeitens schaffen.<\/p> Nicht zuletzt ist es allgemeines Ziel des WTZ West, das Thema Forschung generell in den Vordergrund zu r\u00fccken und so die Attraktivit\u00e4t des Forschungs- und Wirtschaftsstandorts \u00d6sterreich zu erh\u00f6hen.<\/p> Das WTZ West bringt Sie mit den passenden Experten f\u00fcr Ihr Forschungsanliegen zusammen. Egal f\u00fcr welche Fragestellung Sie einen Partner in der universit\u00e4ren Forschung ben\u00f6tigen \u2013 das WTZ West fungiert f\u00fcr Sie als Schnittstelle und stellt alle n\u00f6tigen Kontakte her. So sparen Sie Zeit und M\u00fche und brauchen nicht selbst auf die Suche nach dem passenden Experten f\u00fcr Ihr Anliegen zu gehen \u2013 einfach und zentralisiert erledigt das gerne das Team des WTZ West f\u00fcr Sie.
