Research Helicopter
META provides a range of services to help research/technology organisations, individual scientists and EU research projects become more entrepreneurial and better use their results.
META has been helping research teams prepare and implement their project's exploitation strategies for over 20 years. We work before, during and after research projects, helping teams:
- design research funding proposals so the resulting project is more market-oriented
- prepare and then implement their project's exploitation strategies.
META's experience led to
our selection as exclusive supplier of research exploitation services
for Horizon 2020 and Horizon Europe
