Innovation is at the core of our research driving us to the top percentiles of international rankings as a key innovator recognised by the EU Innovation Radar, embracing the innovative 6 ‘I’s model based on internationalisation, interdisciplinarity, intersectorality, impact, innovation and inclusion.
