KTUR²: Towards a global innovation ecosystem in the Upper Rhine region
The Knowledge Transfer Upper Rhine 2 (KTUR²) project offers companies privileged access to innovation and cutting-edge technologies by focusing on several strategic axes in the Upper Rhine.
A programme supported and co-financed by the European Union, KTUR² acts as a catalyst for innovation and collaboration between businesses and researchers on a cross-border scale.
It aims to meet the R&D needs of businesses by facilitating: access to innovations resulting from research work and to cutting-edge technologies available in cross-border research units.
KTUR² is also developing a range of continuing training courses to enhance skills, keep pace with socio-economic developments and enable your teams to remain at the cutting edge of your business sector.
In addition, the project promotes entrepreneurship and the creation of start-ups within the tri-national network, while simplifying access to innovation funding in the region.

The KTUR² Consortium
The origins of the KTUR network
The ambition of the first KTUR project, launched in October 2019, was to make knowledge and technology transfer at regional and cross-border level more efficient, systematic and sustainable between public research and businesses.
To achieve this, a network of 12 member universities comprising the Eucor universities (the Karlsruher Institut für Technologie, Fribourg-en-Brisgau, Haute-Alsace, Basel and Strasbourg), the University of Kaiserslautern-Landau and the TriRhénaTech universities of applied sciences (Kaiserslautern, Karlsruhe, Offenburg, Furtwangen, Lörrach, North-Western Switzerland) as well as technology transfer players such as Conectus, Grand E-nov+ (Regional Innovation Agency) and the CCI Alsace Eurométropole have joined forces.
Project supported and co-funded by the European Union
