KNOWLEDGE THAT TRANSFORMS

UdeC InES R&D Project
Innovates and Transforms

The project UdeC Innova y Transforma es una iniciativa que busca fortalecer las capacidades institucionales de la Universidad de Concepción para impulsar la innovación basada en investigación y desarrollo (I+D), con foco en generar mayor impacto en el desarrollo sostenible y en la transferencia de conocimiento hacia la sociedad y la industria. La iniciativa es financiada por el Concurso InES I+D 2025 de la Agencia Nacional de Investigación y Desarrollo (ANID).

escalamiento

Although UdeC has a solid scientific and technological trajectory, it is currently facing relevant challenges, including the readiness of its technologies, the integration among key units, the systematic outreach to the production sector, and a significant dependence on public financing.

This initiative will allow for the consolidation of a more competitive, sustainable, and connected R&D+I+E ecosystem, positioning UdeC as a key player in innovation at national and international levels.

OBJECTIVES

The project proposes a comprehensive transformation of the innovation ecosystem, through:

GOVERNANCE

A more articulated and strategic governance through an integrated information system

OUTREACH

Greater connection with the industry and technological networks

PROTOTYPING AND SCALING

Valorization of the infrastructure for prototyping and scaling

TRANSFER AND ENTREPRENEURSHIP
