TUM International - What excels us
-
The only developer of integrated academic and industrial sites that meet the German standard
We work with a strong network of researchers and highly specialized partner companies, allowing us to build complex “ecosystems” in cooperation with academia and industry. -
The professional site developer of a leading European university
As a full subsidiary of the Technical University of Munich, TUM International has direct access to innovative expertise. -
Jointly running a site rather than just advising
Concept work is always focused on the sustainable and joint development of a site. TUM International stays on site as a joint operator. -
Project monitoring using specific, industry-related indicators
TUM International creates measurable added value in the form of applied knowledge, industrial projects and jobs for the future. -
Research and academia are the mainstay in the development of an economic region
We bring industry to the campus and the campus to industrial sites. The structure of the partnership always remains flexible, meaning the parameters for each project can be set individually.
