CBI Pro-Akademia

VDC of Stuttgart-Fellbach is a non-profit competence and innovation centre for Virtual Engineering technologies. Around 70 members and associated partners (including SMEs, large companies, research organizations, universities, political stakeholders), actively participate to the cluster activities. Technology transfer and cluster management constitute the central threads of all its activities. Special attention is paid to the imbedding of SMEs so as to increase their innovation and competition abilities through technology and knowledge transfer. The network gets expanded by close connections to regional chambers of commerce, and other regional industry associations. There are more than 2000 receivers of the VDC newsletter, to which the project results will be disseminated.
