Invitation Collaborate with leading researchers - an easy and effective route to knowledge and growth Roskilde University 1 "As a ‘university based in reality’ we Welcome believe that RUC's primary duty is to engage in innovative collaborations with actors outside the realm of the university, who wish to contribute to creating the learning, knowledge and problem solving that can move society forward" 2 Welcome Roskilde University must engage with reality. Our research should make a difference. Preferably for your business. In your working life. For your customers. And for your bottom line. We believe that many of the most important questions and answers arise from the interaction between those working in a private company, a public institution or an interest group, and those of us conducting research and teaching at the university. We would therefore like to involve you and your organization directly in our research, in order to identify and understand the nature of the issues. We can then engage in a dialogue about what solutions we can create together. This brochure is intended as inspiration for such a collab- oration. If you and your company would like to participate, please contact us. The best way to move society forward is by working together. Hanne Leth Andersen Rector 3 Solve your next challenge with leading researchers RUC's 1,000 employees work in a wide range of technology, arts, social and natural sciences.

Together we have developed know-how which, for the most part, is regularly shared through articles, lectures and, in special cases, through patent appli- cations. An added bonus has been that our collaboration has given me some great new colleagues." Kim Borch, Science Director Novozymes Get an Industrial PhD "As a trade organization for the entire maritime industry in Denmark, we look after the interests of a number of leading global companies. These companies need the latest and most advanced knowledge in order to maintain and strengthen their position. One way we have had access to this knowledge is through our industrial PhD from Roskilde University. He has brought us closer to some of the leading research environments. He has also introduced some of the universi- ty’s approaches to problem solving. This has helped us to achieve a better understanding of the future. It has also provided us with some tools, so we can help our member companies to shape that future." Jenny N. Braat, CEO. Danish Maritime Co-create with RUC "As a society, we are facing some enormous challenges at present. As an authority and a welfare producer, it is imperative that we cooperate with the best knowledge environments to create the necessary solutions for the future. RUC is excellent as such a partner. Researchers have extensive knowledge of a great many areas that are relevant for us. I have seen great willingness to make this know- ledge available to us, who use it in practice every day."
