ITRI aims to be a world-class think tank.
ITRI has multiple collaboration models to adapt to different needs or situations:
- Contract Service: ITRI undertakes strategic/industrial consulting services contracted by international enterprises. Projects as such encourage ITRI’s R&D units, domestic companies and industrial associations to become more internationalized.
- Technology Transfer: ITRI transfers its IPs to domestic or international enterprises to increase their technology value and strengthen their position in the market.
- Joint Research: ITRI teams up with internationally renowned universities, R&D institutes or enterprises to conduct joint research to develop breakthrough foresight technologies.
- Strategic Alliance: ITRI consolidates all its IP/technologies/know-how and makes them available to Taiwan’s enterprises for commercialization, enabling them to collaborate with international companies or form strategic joint ventures.
- Strategic Investment: ITRI combines the technologies developed in house and those acquired through strategic investment in domestic or international companies to form start-up companies. It routinely becomes a stakeholder of these companies, paving the way for domestic companies to enter the global market by international collaboration.
