About us
Innovation Xperience is an open program that accelerates ideas with real-world impact. We connect academia, industry and the startup ecosystem to co-create solutions where technology serves people.
We focus on hands-on experimentation: from rapid prototyping to field validation, with a strong emphasis on AI, IoT, sustainability and inclusive design. Our approach is iterative and transparent: we share progress, learnings, and roadmaps as the initiative evolves.
Core values
- Openness – collaboration first, silos last.
- Pragmatism – from ideas to working prototypes.
- Ethics & Inclusion – technology that respects people and the planet.
