Cooperation

Regional

Future development of the HiLASE Centre is not an isolated activity. The Centre is perfectly located in a new and dynamically developing region STAR (Science and Technology Advanced region), i.e. the cluster including all key innovative infrastructures and hi-tech companies of the region with huge potential to increase the competitiveness of the region and wellbeing of its people. The emphasis will be put on active participation in further development of the existing regional cluster formation STAR providing an innovation friendly environment. STAR, just like HiLASE Centre, is a member of the Brain4Industry consortium.

STAR - responsible development of the region

Top science and applied research. Technological and innovative companies. Attractive and safe environment for life and business. A small region with great potential. This is STAR. A science and technology cluster, made up of a strong community of research organizations, companies, investors and enthusiastic local patriots. Eco-system, that belongs to one of the fastest growing economies of the European Union.

HiLASE supports local school

We strive to involve young people in science and to support meaningful projects in the local community . This is why HiLASE seeks to stimulate children's interest in science and technology. Young scientists from the HiLASE laser center team regularly teach at the local base school in Dolní Břežany. In addition, HiLASE attends a science fair every year, during which children have a unique opportunity to explore a number of disciplines from close proximity.

The HiLASE Centre is a member of the Brain4Industry consortium

B4I was created to help small and medium-sized companies in particular to make the most of digital technologies and artificial intelligence, thereby increasing their competitiveness. It is to serve as a one-stop-shop for the digital transformation of these businesses - their representatives will gain access to knowledge, methods and software, technology platforms, prototyping solutions and testing facilities. The consortium has also been included as one of the Czech Republic's representatives in the prestigious network of European Digital Innovation Hubs (EDIH).

EDIH BRAIN4INDUSTRY

Brain4Industry is a science and technology consortium that enables small and medium-sized industrial enterprises to apply the results of cutting-edge technological research to everyday manufacturing practice. It focuses on digitalisation, additive and laser technologies, artificial intelligence, innovative materials, and coating systems.

It specializes in product research and development, the entire production chain, and its sustainability. It also helps develop solutions and optimize production processes to increase companies’ added value and make production more efficient.

The consortium offers a comprehensive ecosystem for innovation, cutting-edge technology, expertise, accompanying training and consulting services, and customized support. Thanks to its status as a European Digital Innovation Hub (EDIH), SMEs can benefit from the services and technological facilities of the consortium under de minimis support.

It is based in the Dolní Břežany innovation centre, where it is also possible to use a wide range of additive technologies, training facilities, and shared offices within the framework of joint projects.
