TTT-AI

Thematic Technology Transfer – Artificial Intelligence (TTT-AI) offers a specialized venture-building program and investment fund for knowledge/research-based AI startups. It unites eight Knowledge Transfer Offices (KTOs) of 10 knowledge institutions in Amsterdam, Utrecht, Nijmegen and Eindhoven, as well as their activities, instruments, and networks. They are all operating on the front lines of current AI developments and represent over 50 top AI research groups and the majority of the leading AI scientists in the Netherlands. On top of that, many other parties active in the field of AI – incubators, universities of applied sciences, investment funds, and network organizations, such as the Nederlandse AI Coalitie and the Innovation Center for Artificial Intelligence (ICAI) – are participating in TTT-AI. And we’re always open to welcoming new partners into our network!

The TTT-AI program is coordinated by the University of Amsterdam. The TTT-AI investment fund is managed by LUMO Labs. Currently, our network contains the following organizations:
