Project time: 2017 – 2018

Budget: 500 000 kr

Funding: SIP Produktion2030

Purpose and goal

Kunskapsförmedlingen (in English Result Center) is a meeting place for Swedish research in product and production development, with the aim of making research results more accessible to industry, as well as strengthening collaboration between universities, institutes and business. The presented results are derived from the research conducted by Sweden’s leading research programs. Project objectives for “Operations and Development Kunskapsförmedlingen 3.1” is to secure operations (technical and editorial work), conduct graphic and functional development of the website.

Results and expected effects

Expected results are a new graphic layout with new templates for better clarity, increased number of updated seminars, projects, researcher presentations, announcements and news (logbook), and increased visibility in social media. This is expected to increase traffic to the site and the number of participants at meetings in the Knowledge Tour. Long-term impact is increased availability of academia’s research results for industry and vice versa, increased exchange of ideas for future research, and enhanced collaboration between universities, institutes and business.
