ERP Report 2019

In this report we present the 2019 progress of TNO’s Early Research Program (ERP) portfolio. In total 16 Full (four-year) ERPs carried out (see Table 1), focused on societal and economical grand challenges requiring a concerted effort of applied research, fundamental research and future private development. We thus continued our use-case-inspired research approach with equal emphasis on generating cutting edge knowledge and technology, together with research partners from academia, and on building research ecosystems with stakeholders and sponsors from industry and public organizations. Table 1 below lists these ERP’s and provides for each of these a 2019 highlight.
