At a recent presentation held at Bálna Budapest, CEO of SZTE TTC introduced one of the first Hungary’s TTC (TTO) and highlighted how the company supports innovation, the commercialization of research results, and stronger collaboration with industry.
One of the key messages shared by András Ujhegyi was that, SZTE TTC represents a third mission of the university—beyond education and research—by embedding a culture of innovation into everyday academic life. The TTC acts as a bridge between academia and business: turning research outcomes into market-ready solutions, while translating corporate needs into research projects.
The CEO emphasized that:
- SZTE TTC is a leading actor in this field, with several successful collaborations and consortia.
- The company will continue to strengthen strategies that foster joint innovation and accelerate market entry.
Technology transfer is not only about business development, but also about a cultural shift for universities. Our goal is to turn scientific results into tangible social and economic value,
stressed the head of SZTE TTC.
