The Deutsche Industrieforschungsgemeinschaft Konrad Zuse or Zuse Association for short is an interest group for non-profit industrial research institutions in Germany. It bears the name of the German computer inventor Konrad Zuse . The members of the technology and branch open association are independent research institutions. These are mainly registered associations or non-profit limited liability companies that are not jointly funded by the federal and state governments.
In addition to the research associations of the Fraunhofer and Max Planck Societies, the Helmholtz and Leibniz Associations and the universities , the Zuse Association sees itself as the “third pillar” of the German research landscape. Its goals are to accelerate industrial research and development transfers, to uniformly represent its members vis-à-vis the federal, state and economic organizations, and to improve competitiveness, in particular through equal access to funding programs.
The Zuse Association sees itself, alongside the Working Group of Industrial Research Associations (AiF), as a carrier of industrial research in Germany.
founding
