CLEAN and research partners launch five green innovation projects

5 new knowledge bridge projects across Clean’s focus areas will be launched in 2023, with just over DKK 2 million in grants from Clean.

In December, Clean’s grant committee for the 5 focus areas met to approve the next round of knowledge bridge projects. Out of 15 applications across Clean’s five focus areas, five projects were approved.

The knowledge bridge projects in the 3rd round, as in the other rounds, focus on the development and bridging between companies and knowledge institutions. A knowledge bridge project brings innovation and knowledge to companies from different perspectives. With a knowledge bridge project, you can get a stamp of approval for your idea or product, as Fr. Petersen in Broager did with their MurstenRenser.

The five knowledge bridge projects connect innovative companies with leading research environments, creating a strong foundation for green transition. Each project addresses specific technological challenges and supports the development of new solutions based on current knowledge. The collaboration enhances both business development and knowledge sharing across sectors and industries.

We look forward to following and supporting the projects throughout the process and seeing their results at the end of 2023!
