1 THE FRAUNHOFER MODEL BRIDGING THE GAP BETWEEN SCIENCE AND INDUSTRY CREATE VALIDATE ACCELERATE Brisbane, 9 th of March, 2016 Prof. Dr. Reinhart Poprawe, Fraunhofer ILT Speaker of Group Light and Surfaces Member of Fraunhofer Präsidium

2 Fraunhofer The largest organization for applied research in Europe 67 institutes and research units Nearly 24,000 staff More than 2 billion annual research budget totaling. Of this sum, around 1.7 billion euros is generated through contract research Roughly two thirds of this sum is generated through contract research on behalf of industry and publicly funded research projects Roughly one third is contributed by the German federal and Länder governments in the form of base funding Fraunhofer lines

3 Fraunhofer is the key association for applied research in Germany Joseph von Fraunhofer ( ) Fraunhofer-Gesellschaft (since 1949) Lines in the solar spectrum Researcher R&D on behalf of state and industry Methods for lens processing Inventor MP3, white LED, Director and partner in a glasswork Entrepreneur Research volume: 2 bn 2014

4 Research volume Contract research Fraunhofer at a glance Applied research of direct utility to private and public enterprise and of wide benefit to society Nearly 24,000 employees 2 bn 1,7 bn Major infrastructure capital expenditure and defense research Nearly 30% basic funding by federal government and Länder Over 70% industrial contracts and public funded research projects 67 institutes and research units 2014

5 Fraunhofer's position in the German Innovation System Societal challenge as future markets - being ready for global competition Universities perform excellent s cientific res earch Research cycle RTOs bridge the innovation gap with technological R&D Innovation cycle Innovative companies create new products Intensive exchange with society close cooperation with universities, every Institutes Director is also Professor at this University close cooperation with Max-Planck-Institutes collaboration with international centers of excellence professional R&D services to industry demand driven research combined with scientific excellence autonomy of institutes combined with simple corporate rules working in networks research services for SME as well as industry (~50/50) research services for high-tech companies (>3,5% R&D) as well as non R&D- intensive companies (0-3,5%)* close affiliation with industry through Fraunhofer advisory boards * equally important factor in national innovation activity; see O. Som (Fraunhofer ISI): Innovation without R&D, Springer 2012

10 Management Systematics

11 Stability indicator Composition - 4 financial indicators econom ic s trength: share of industrial revenues robustness: public financing mix s pending: spending of base funding (in the operating budget) risk provisioning: financial reserves of institutes Functionality and measures different weighting of the four components outcome: maximum 100 points; relative result (%) classification of the results: Calm-Zone (<60 p) plausibility check group chairman: Right of proposal for a Gestaltungsfonds Ris k-zone (<35 p) deepened extrapolation immaterial support of the group functional examination group chairman: Right of proposal for a Gestaltungsfonds

12 Allocation of Institutional Funding Allocation criteria for institutional funding Basic funding for a Fraunhofer Institute Basic 1: Fixed amount Basic 2: Size of the operating budget basic 3: Share of industry revenues basic 4: Share of EU revenues basic 2 = 12% of budget basic 3 = 10% respectively 40% of industry revenues basic 1 = fixed amount 0,6 million % Rho Wi Rho EU

13 Fraunhofer Spin-offs (extract)

14 Cooperation with Universities Institutional integration by dual appointment: Fraunhofer Institute director = University professor (chair) Fraunhofer Institute access to basic research recruitment of junior scientists recruitment of students (interns, undergraduates) opportunities for employees to gain scientific qualification (doctorate, professorship, contributing to the university s curriculum) University Chair cooperation in industry-oriented projects; opportunities for interns, undergraduates and graduates to gain practical experience integration of practical applications into the curriculum access to cost-intensive equipment

15 Example: Institute for Laser Technology ILT Aachen

16 Facts and Figures of Fraunhofer ILT About 31 Mio Euro operating budget (without investments) About 4 Mio Euro investments per year 400 LLT, TOS, NLD, AM DQS certified according to DIN EN ISO 9001 App. 50% industrially funded Research 2 branches abroad : - Center for Laser Technology CLT in Plymouth, MI, USA - Coopération Laser Franco-Allemande CLFA in Paris, France App. 3 patent applications per month on average App. 30 Spin-offs since 1985, 1/year
