Forms of collaboration and quality assurance
As a research group, we are happy to enter into new collaborations where we can work together to bring a project to a successful conclusion. We are currently working on major projects with government institutions, technology companies, community organisations, students and local residents. We know how to develop high-quality products for smart cities by leveraging each other's expertise.
This can vary from a one-off brainstorming session to a multi-year research project. Curious about the possibilities? Then get in touch with us.
