Customised Analysis and Testing Services for Companies with R&D Projects
Development and research services for companies interested in developing R&D&I projects but lacking the technical and/or human resources to carry them out. This also includes biological activity services using cellular, animal and human models, all designed on a customised basis according to the client’s needs. All services are adapted to the time requirements and objectives of the R&D&I project. Fast, flexible and personalised solutions are offered.
TECHNOLOGY DESCRIPTION
The market requires innovative solutions tailored to the actual needs of each project and situation. Today, a level of specialisation, support and teamwork is required that many potential competitors are unable to provide.
Companies need to carry out these tests on their products with a level of specialisation that is not available through the standardised lists of tests offered by other companies. They require both specialised expertise and support in their design. In addition, some companies, despite having R&D&I departments, lack the infrastructure and/or knowledge required to carry out genuine research projects.
TECHNOLOGY APPLICATIONS
The “customised” R&D service is essential for sectors requiring rigorous scientific validation:
- Pharmaceutical and Biotechnology Industry: Development and testing of new drugs or active ingredients.
- Cosmetics and Dermopharmacy Sector: Skin efficacy and dermatological safety testing.
- Food and Nutraceutical Industry: Validation of the health properties of functional foods and supplements.
- Medical Technology (MedTech): Biocompatibility testing and validation of new devices.
ADVANTAGES AND INNOVATIVE ASPECTS
There are several, but they can be summarised as follows:
- Ability to adapt to the client’s actual needs.
- Extensive experience in R&D&I, both in carrying out projects and in securing grants and funding from public and private bodies.
- Access to the full scientific and technical infrastructure of UMH.
DEVELOPMENT STAGE
The service is fully operational and available for immediate application. The group has a track record of successful collaborations with the private sector, transforming business needs into tangible scientific results.
APPLICATION SECTORS
- Small and Medium-sized Enterprises (SMEs) without their own R&D department.
- Technology Start-ups and Spin-offs requiring external validation for investment rounds.
- Large Companies requiring specific research lines or highly specialised testing to be outsourced.
- Innovation Consultancies seeking a trusted technology partner for their clients.
