2 supprts its custmers thrugh empirical research in ecnmic, technlgy and innvatin plicies and business innvatin prcesses. We prvide the evidence basis n which strategies can be frmulated, effects evaluated and new actins taken. Our aim is t cntribute t effective and efficient actins by gvernment, the better develpment f the natinal and reginal ecnmy and increases in the cmpetitiveness f enterprises.

3 Institute fr Ecnmic and fr successful, evidence-based decisins in plicies and enterprises. The Institute fr Ecnmic and supprts custmers frm the public sectr and private businesses thrugh cnsulting, planning and evaluatin in the fllwing fields technlgy and innvatin strategies, funding prgrammes and plicies, reginal lcatin assessment and develpment, innvatin prjects in cmpanies. data-based innvatin prjects in cmpanies. We apply ur empirical and methdical expertise in prjects prviding ecnmic, scientific and statistical supprt during the develpment f innvatin strategies and plicies but als f cncrete technlgies and prducts. Fr example, we examine the innvative behaviur f cmpanies, evaluate the effects f plicy measures, assess reginal grwth ptential r investigate the gender-specific access t and impact f scientific and technlgical develpments. In the curse f ur activities, we strive t adhere t high principles f research ethics such as impartiality, bjectivity and transparency. Fr us, Respnsible Research and Innvatin des nt nly refer t the bject f research but als serves as a guiding principle fr ur research practice. We can pint t a large prtfli f prjects and successful wrk spanning many years in cllabratin with reginal, natinal and internatinal custmers and partners. Our custmers include internatinal rganizatins such as the Eurpean Cmmissin, the OECD and clients frm Germany, Switzerland and the Nrdic cuntries. We perfrm research n behalf f all imprtant natinal players such as federal ministries, funding institutins and advisry bdies as well as many states and municipalities. We are als the cperatin partner fr a range f highly innvative cmpanies in Austria.

4 The central areas f activity are: Empirical scientific, technlgy and innvatin research Indicatr develpment and indicatr-based plicy analysis Research and innvatin ecnmics based n micrdata analysis f data frm cmpanies, institutins f higher educatin, the jb market and regins as well as scientific and patent data Empirical impact analyses f plicy measures Technlgy, Innvatin and Plicy Cnsulting The research grup Technlgy, Innvatin and Plicy Cnsulting stands fr frward-lking analysis, develpment f new plicies and fr critical reflexin f research, technlgy and structural plicy n a slid empirical fundatin. We are a develpment partner fr institutins frm the public sectr, internatinal rganizatins and enterprise partners and develp target-riented empirical bases and new theretical and cnceptual appraches. The research grup regards itself as a partner prviding cnceptualizatin, cnsultatin and critical reflectin. The research grup Technlgy, Innvatin and Plicy Cnsulting aims t strengthen its cmpetencies and instruments within an internatinal netwrk f partners in a cmplementary fashin. Analysis f lng-term develpment trends and specializatin patterns f natinal, reginal and sectral innvatin systems Systemic advice, develpment and evaluatin f measures Develpment f evaluatin and mnitring systems Evaluatin f plicies, institutins and prgrammes in reginal, natinal and supranatinal innvatin systems Sciecnmic impact assessments Innvatin and develpment f human resurces Analysis and design f gender, diversity and user aspects in innvatin prcesses Analyses f individual prfessinal career paths and their institutinal and plitical cntexts a a Designing measures t strengthen human resurce ptential in R&D and measurement f their effects n equal pprtunities Missin Oriented Plicies (MOP): We supprt the EU Cmmissin and the Federal Ministry f Transprt, Innvatin and Technlgy in the strategic develpment f missinriented research, technlgy and innvatin plicy. Eurpean Tertiary Educatin Register (ETER): We are respnsible fr the cllectin and prvisin f data fr the Eurpean university register n behalf f the EU Cmmissin. Evaluatin f the Federal Ministry f Educatin and Research framewrk prgramme fr health research in Germany, cntributin f the EU framewrk prgramme t majr innvatins, impact evaluatin f the EUREKA prgramme: With internatinal partners, the research grup evaluates research prgrammes and prvides slid cntributins t the further develpment f existing plicy instruments and the rientatin f new plicy instruments. 4

5 Data Analytics and Statistical Mdelling Data analytics and statistical methds prvide new insights, bjective decisin-making bases and a tl fr mre efficiency in prduct and prcess develpment fr cmpanies bth in regard t service and technical usage and ffer public clients better and empirically well-funded recmmendatins fr actin. The research grup Data Analytics and Statistical Mdelling prvides methds and analysis tls fr ptimising technical and ecnmic systems as well as prcesses and prducts, which result in increased cst-benefit efficiency and quality as well as general evidence-based decisin-making. Based n specific expertise in statistical mdelling, data analysis methds and simulatin techniques cmbined with many years f experience in practical prblem-slving, the research grup develps decisin-making bases and ptimisatin appraches fr clients frm the ecnmic and administratin sectr with the fllwing fcal pints: Systems analysis and prject cnceptin Statistical Design f Experiments (DE) and survey planning Optimisatin f prducts and facilities in the design phase Data analytics, mdelling and ptimisatin f prcesses fr Industry 4.0 Develpment f sft sensrs (virtual metrlgy) Lifetime and reliability predictin Cnditin-based maintenance planning (predictive maintenance) Develpment f custmer-specific predictive mdels (predictive analytics) Predictive maintenance: Statistical mdels fr cnditinbased reliability and lifetime predictin have been develped within the cntext f multiple research prjects, which, in further cnsequence, can be integrated in a system fr predictive maintenance and thus lead t early fault detectin, time t failure predictin, maintenance scheduling and resurce ptimisatin. eramp: heads a wrk package within the framewrk f eramp, ne f Eurpe s mst imprtant research prjects n energy efficiency, and cnducts research n statistical mdels fr predicting reliability and yield during the develpment f new pwer semicnductrs.
