Its success is also based on a strong external focus. "We cooperate intensively with external partners," explains Managing Director Korbinian Hermann. "We follow current developments in specialist circles and seek discussions with customers, association representatives and researchers. We also keep track of which institutes are investing in which topics where in the world or founding new spin-offs."
