IWT
IWT (agentschap voor Innovatie door Wetenschap en Technologie), the agency for Innovation through Science and Technology, offers initial support for innovation (any product, process or service that is new or innovative to both the company and the sector). Companies can receive grants within certain innovation projects and R&D cases. One of the subsidised projects initiated by IWT involves the so-called ‘Baekeland’ mandates, offering researchers the opportunity to conduct a doctorate project in close cooperation with businesses.
