Description

Description (EN):

The "ROCKET - Regional Collaboration on Key Enabling Technologies" project is the engine to bring the Comprehensive Economic competencies in the area of KETs in the German-Dutch border area together, to build and to deploy a measurable and future-oriented economic development . KETs enable innovations in various application domains. The combination of technology and application expertise of R&D institutes and companies on both sides of the Dutch-German border will increase the competitiveness of both technology developers stimulate an orientation to new markets and OEMs (Original Equipment Manufacturer) offering innovative products . ROCKET focuses on three social challenges: - Health - KETs for pioneering applications in healthcare - Energy - KETs innovative solutions for energy efficiency, energy storage, conversion and transport - Manufacturing - KETs for smart, innovative and efficient production ROCKET will significantly and sustainable improve the current limited networks and cooperation within the border region in area of KETs. Feasibility studies and concrete innovation projects will enable KETs-based, cross-border value chains that will provide both answers to global challenges and growth impulses across the whole border region.

Description (NL):

Het project “ROCKET - Regional Collaboration on Key Enabling Technologies” is de motor om de uitgebreide economische competenties op het gebied van de KETs in het Duits-Nederlandse grensgebied samen te brengen, uit te bouwen en om te zetten in een meetbare en toekomstgerichte economische ontwikkeling. KETs maken innovaties in verschillende toepassingsdomeinen mogelijk. De combinatie van technologie en applicatie-expertise van R&D-instituten en bedrijven aan beide zijden van de Nederlands-Duitse grens zal het concurrentievermogen van zowel technologie-ontwikkelaars stimuleren door een oriëntatie op nieuwe markten als van OEM’s (Original Equipment Manufacturer) die innovatieve producten aanbieden. ROCKET richt zich op drie maatschappelijke uitdagingen: - Gezondheid - KETs voor baanbrekende toepassingen in de gezondheidszorg - Energie - KETs voor innovatieve oplossingen voor energie-efficiëntie, energie-opslag, conversie en transport - Productie - KETs voor slimme, vernieuwende en efficiënte productieprocessen ROCKET zal de tot nu toe beperkt aanwezige netwerken en samenwerking binnen de grensregio op het gebied van de KETs aanzienlijk en duurzaam verbeteren. Haalbaarheidsstudies en concrete innovatieprojecten zullen op KETs gebaseerde, grensoverschrijdende waardeketens mogelijk maken, die zowel antwoorden op de globale uitdagingen als groei-impulsen in het hele grensgebied zullen geven.

Description (DE):

Das Projekt “ROCKET - Regional Collaboration on Key Enabling Technologies” ist der Motor, um die weitreichenden wirtschaftlichen Kompetenzen im Bereich von KETs im deutsch-niederländischen Grenzgebiet zu bündeln, auszubauen und in eine messbare und zukunftsorientierte ökonomische Entwicklung umzusetzen. KETs ermöglichen Innovationen auf verschiedenen Anwendungsgebieten. Die Kombination von Technologie und Applikations-Sachverstand von R&D-Einrichtungen und Unternehmen auf beiden Seiten der deutsch-niederländischen Grenze wird die Wettbewerbsfähigkeit sowohl der Technologie-Entwickler durch eine Orientierung auf neue Märkte, als auch der OEM’s, die innovative Produkte anbieten, in starkem Maße steigern. ROCKET konzentriert sich auf drei gesellschaftliche Herausforderungen: - Gesundheit - KETs für bahnbrechende Anwendungen im Gesundheitswesen - Energie - KETs für innovative Lösungen zur Energie-Effizienz, -Speicherung, -Kon-version und -Transport - Produktion - KETs für intelligente, innovative und effiziente Produktionsprozesse ROCKET wird die bislang nur begrenzt vorhandenen Netzwerke und Kooperationen in der Grenzregion im Bereich KETs erheblich und nachhaltig verbessern. Machbarkeitsstudien und konkrete Innovationsprojekte werden auf KETs basierte, grenzüberschreitende Wertschöpfungsketten ermöglichen, die den globalen Herausforderungen gerecht und dem gesamten Grenzraum Wachstumsimpulse verleihen werden.

Achievements (EN):

ROCKET (RegiOnal Collaboration on Key Enabling Technologies) stimulates the cooperation between business and science in the German-Dutch border region between the North Sea and Lower Rhine in order to strengthen research, technological development and innovation. This project runs from 01-04-2016 to 31-03-2020 and has been executed by the core partners NMWP.NRW, Business Cluster Semiconductors, Novel-T and innos-Sperlich under the coordination of the regional development agency ‘Oost NL’. In these four years they have worked together to strengthen the innovative power and competitive capacity of high-tech companies in the Dutch-German border region. The goal is to set up and strengthen a cross-border network of a large number of high-tech SMEs and to create a platform for starting new innovative projects. Based on this strong cooperation, more than 30 cross-border collaborations have been set up during the course of the project with the aim of strengthening and accelerating developments in Key Enabling Technologies, such as photonics, nanotechnology, micro- and nanoelectronics, microsystem technology and new materials. A total of 153 organisations have been supported, including 112 SMEs, 15 large companies and 26 research institutes. A total of 6 feasibility studies and 11 innovation projects were financed directly from ROCKET. These funded projects resulted in 69 new products and developments. The developments within the key technologies provide the foundation for a new generation of innovations, making the region as a whole more competitive and therefore more future-proof in these times of rapid development. The eleven innovation projects have generated the greatest impact. The content of these proposals, including exclusive film material to explain the developments comprehensibly and effectively, can be found at www.rocket-innovations.eu. The topics of these projects vary, but they always relate to the domains of production, health and energy. For example, work has been done on the development of needles that can be better placed in the surface skin by means of nanotechnology, leading to a more efficient administration of insulin in order to increase the quality of life for diabetes patients. Another project has focused on the development of new material for police services, whereby the traditional cotton swab is replaced by another membrane. This results in DNA testing becoming significantly more reliable and increases the chance of criminals being caught. Within yet another project, equipment has been developed for the 2D and 3D inspection of hydrogen fuel cells at the nanoscale. This will increase the quality of these fuel cells in the production process, boosting the transition to sustainable energy. The activities in the project have been rewarded with a number of prizes. These include the selection by the European Commission in the WATIFY project as best practice for the promotion of key technologies and by the umbrella organisation of development companies EUREKA with the Eurada Awards. We see these awards as an appreciation of the work carried out by all the partners involved during the course of the project. The project has led to many sustainable collaborations and new connections. Not least between the project’s core partners. These five organisations will continue their efforts to stimulate technological developments and innovations by entrepreneurs in the border area. This is already evident from the development of the follow-up programme ‘ROCKET Reloaded’ and will also be an objective in a broader sense. Would you like to know more about the project?

Project leader Alex van Geldrop can be contacted by e-mail via alex.vangeldrop@oostnl.nl or by telephone on +31 6 2885 1997. The programme is carried out under the coordination of Oost NL and in cooperation with the partners innos Sperlich, NMWP.NRW, Novel-T and BC Semi NL. This project is financially supported under the INTERREG programme Deutschland-Nederland by the European Union, the provinces of Overijssel and Gelderland, MB Niedersachsen, and MWIDE NRW.
