Co-operations
The multiple successes of our work are mainly based on the co-operation with the best national and international partners. We work together in an extraordinary network of globally operating industrial companies, European design agencies, local non-profit organisations, European university institutions and almost all of the non-university research institutions of DRESDEN-concept.

Committed locally and internationally networked
Locally, we work as an interdisciplinary teaching, research and development team within TU Dresden and with partners from science and culture in the DRESDEN-concept network. Internationally, we are involved in networks and collaborations, contribute our expertise to the EUTOPIA alliance and participate in European research consortia to improve the interaction between humans and technical systems.
Different formats, many possibilities: We use different collaboration formats. In real laboratories or living labs, we develop and test innovative solutions together with partners from science, industry and society under real conditions. In contract research, we work on questions from external partners in a targeted manner and contribute our design expertise to specific projects. Longer-term industrial collaborations create a stable framework for continuous knowledge and technology transfer and promote sustainable innovation. These formats are supplemented by collaboration in European research consortia and international networks. This creates a variety of synergies that enrich the design process and create added value for society.
We work on almost all of our projects in interdisciplinary or transdisciplinary cooperation with strong partners.
