CORDIS Technology Marketplace offers information on latest exploitable technologies
CORDIS, the European Commission's Research and Development Information Service, has launched a redesigned interactive Technology Marketplace to act as a showcase for the latest exploitable technologies in a wide range of areas, including biology, energy, the environment, food and telecommunications. The service provides regularly-updated offers on new technology available for further exploitation, including an 'offer of the week.' The offers, each of which include contact details and a clear description of the new technology and its potential applications, originate from exploitable research results, mainly from EU-funded research. The offers are divided into three sections - 'Business,' providing information on technologies to improve business performance, 'Science,' for new tools and techniques for scientists and engineers, and 'Society,' for developments aimed at improving human well-being and the word we live in. The Technology Marketplace service, which is free of charge, can be used by businesses and scientific institutions to locate relevant exploitable technology and promote new results. Tips, business advice and links are also available. The service is available in English, French, German, Italian and Spanish.
