== Research ==

Excellent research at the interface of digital technologies and entrepreneurship is another task of the CDTM. The conducted research focussesfocuses on new technologies that will become relevant in a period of five to ten years. In detail, topics such as [[prototyping]], business model innovation, and [[technology transfer]] are addressed. A particularity at the CDTM is the strongclose link between research and teaching. An interdisciplinary structure enables the incorporation of expertise from students, doctoral students, and professors. For instance, current topics are integrated into courses, and students are involved in research projects through seminars and theses. Publicly funded research projects of the European Union are, for example, innovative educational initiatives in the food industry or in the health sector. But also private research projects are carried out at the CDTM. In numerous projects, the CDTM cooperates with institutes such as the [[Karolinska Institute]], the European Institute of Innovation & Technology (EIT) or educational institutions such as the [[IESE Business School]], [[Imperial College London]], [[Queen's University Belfast]], or the [[University of Cambridge]].<ref>{{Cite web|title=CDTM – Why and how we partner with EIT Innovation Communities|url=https://eit.cdtm.de/|access-date=2021-11-25|website=eit.cdtm.de}}</ref><ref>{{Cite web|last=Seibold|first=Marcel|title=Research|url=https://www.cdtm.de/research/|access-date=2021-11-25|website=CDTM|language=en-US}}</ref>
