The co-creation trajectory consists of a set of activities to move ideas to a next level. The current matchmaking event aims at discovering potential partnerships: who has the right expertise to move a project forward? Project partnerships will be formed during and after this event. Within these project partnerships, the projects will be launched and executed. Throughout the co-creation trajectory the project partnerships will be further guided towards a valuable projects.
DSP Valley supports the TTD partners in running this co-creation trajectory.
Trans Tech Diagnostics
This event is organized in the framework of Trans Tech Diagnostics. TTD is looking for partners that can support the realisation of innovative diagnostic tools for cardiovascular diseases. TTD has a budget available to fund this partnerships. There s a special, but not limiting, focus on SMEs. More information on TTD can be found via
Trans Tech Diagnostics is a project funded by the Interreg Flanders- The Netherlands program and local governments. Maastricht University (CARIM, lead partner), University Hasselt (BIOMED), VITO and TSG Innoteq are the main TTD partners. DSP Valley and Bonné+Jan are supporting partners.
