Läxor vi lärde från 90-talet…

Försäljningen av sensorer bromsas av:

• Höga kostnader för ledningsdragning och installation

• Marknadens bristande utbildning och distributionsproblem för information

• Konservatism and Komplex marknadsstruktur

Pressmeddelande, 2007-05-21

Forska&Väx finansierar 39 småföretag med 50 miljoner kronor

I VINNOVA-programmet Forska&Väx får 39 småföretag sammanlagt 50,5 miljoner kronor i finansiering till sina FoU-satsningar. 366 företag hade sökt över 600 miljoner kronor.

” - Det är mycket glädjande med den höga kvaliteten på FoU-projekten och de stora egeninsatserna från småföretagen. Vi beklagar dock att endast cirka tio procent av ansökningarna får finansiering, minst det dubbla skulle behövas.

Följande 22 företag får finansiering av FoU-projekt:
