We have performed multiple industrial R&D projects with budgets often larger than CHF 1 Mio. We can complement your R&D projects with specific competencies. You can also profit from our experience in successfully leading large networked R&D projects. If the collaboration is done in the form of a project of the commission for technology and innovation (CTI) our help is financed by the Swiss Federation. The biotechnet thus helps you access excellence in R&D and gives you optimal support at very low cost.
