Collaborations

Our core academic expertise is in the field of:
Power Electronic Converters and Electrical Machines.

We offer a wide range of collaboration opportunities between academia and industry, designed to deliver mutual benefits. Below are the main forms of cooperation we promote:

Collaboration Opportunities

  1. Joint Research
    Development of collaborative projects between companies and the university, often involving the funding of laboratories, PhD programs, or research grants on topics of shared interest.
  2. Internships & Student Projects
    Hosting university students for internships or thesis work, allowing them to gain hands-on experience while contributing fresh knowledge and enthusiasm to the company.
  3. Professional Training & Continuing Education
    Co-design of tailored training programs or specialized courses to upskill company employees and bridge academic knowledge with industrial needs.
  4. Technology Transfer
    Collaborative work aimed at creating patents, innovations, or novel technologies, ensuring practical application in industrial environments.
  5. Sponsorships & Event Support
    Companies can sponsor academic events, conferences, or university projects, strengthening their visibility and engagement with the research community.
  6. Scientific Consulting
    Access to advanced expertise through consultancy agreements with university researchers for specific technical challenges or R&D initiatives.
  7. Spin-Off Creation
    Partnering in the development of startups or spin-off ventures based on university-generated research and intellectual property.

These partnerships provide added value for both sides:

  • For companies: innovation, access to talent, and tailored solutions.
  • For universities: funding, real-world connections, and practical training opportunities for students.

How to Start a Collaboration

To initiate a successful partnership, we suggest the following steps:

  1. Check the Research Focus
    Ensure that your interests align with our core areas: power electronics, electrical machines, or related technologies.
  2. Initial Contact
    Send an email introducing yourself and your organization, along with a brief description of your interest in collaborating. Be clear about your goals.
  3. Detailed Proposal
    If there is mutual interest, prepare a more detailed proposal outlining the type of collaboration, mutual benefits, timeline, and possible methods of cooperation.
  4. Meeting (Virtual or In-Person)
    We’ll schedule a meeting to discuss the proposal in depth, clarify any doubts, and align on expectations.
  5. Formal Agreement
    We will draft and sign a formal collaboration agreement, specifying responsibilities, deliverables, timelines, and resources.
  6. Project Launch
    Begin the project with regular communication, shared milestones, and mutual commitment to achieve impactful results.

If you’re looking to transform research into innovation, we’re ready to work together.
