At {Rudolfovo we take our mission “co-create, share and transfer high-tech knowledge to partners in the economy” very seriously.

At {Rudolfovo, we have a lot of valuable research equipment, organised in five laboratories: {LabTOP, {LabX, {Lab3D, {LabM and {LabE. The laboratories are available to all in-house and external researchers under transparent conditions. In addition, we have several leased patent databases, giving us a clear overview of intellectual property in most areas of current interest. We pursue our vision of becoming a cutting-edge high-tech research organisation and the link between science and its effective application in practice through industrial, research and development projects. After two years of active work, we can now boast 15 awarded industrial projects for local businesses, with three publicly funded research projects and four development projects. We are particularly proud of our industrial project with Iskra Pio, for which we received the Golden Innovation Award from the Chamber of Commerce of Dolenjska and Bela krajina and the Silver National Innovation Award. We are very optimistic about the future. We are winning ever more and bigger projects for the local industry. Through our internal early innovation process, we carefully generate new R&D ideas and then prudently develop them into projects. We enter into Horizon Europe project consortia and other international programmes with the aim of generating results that will resonate in the scientific community and in the corporate sector. With the in-house digitalisation project, we have been approaching our goal of nearly zero-paper operation. The support of the whole community is required for the successful establishment of a public research institute. At {Rudolfovo, we feel this support and we will do our best to ensure that the positive effects of our activity are noted in the entire community.

The European Platform for International Cohesion (EPIC) is an NGO that was established in Italy in early 2020 to build on the experience of its members coming from various social and educational backgrounds to promote the values of European integration in all its social and economic facets. The core of the association is to promote awareness and ownership of the fundamental concepts of cohesion that stand behind the European Union. EPIC was founded by its members as a grassroot movement to counter the wave of the anti-European sentiment that started afflicting the dream of a United Europe by promoting with small but concrete actions the values of European cohesion. The spirit behind EPIC is one of “togetherness” and unity in a particular moment of social distress of the European dream. The purpose of EPIC is hence to promote and instil European values of integration and cohesion. EPIC organises events of awareness among civil society and groups of citizens to provide concrete and valuable examples of the many positive opportunities of the European Union to inspire the population at large and share the values of European integration. The purpose of those activities is to promote engagement among various cohorts of target groups, ranging from youth to seniors.
