Collaborators
Industry and academia have come together to boost European technology and business innovation ventures.
5TONIC seeks to connect and cooperate with both large companies and SMEs, as well as institutions, related or not with ICT, such as the automotive, energy, food and agriculture, city management, healthcare, manufacturing, transportation industries, etc. We are looking for peers in vertical areas that are interested in engaging in joint projects or activities related to 5G.
For these purposes, a flexible collaborator agreement has been designed, allowing for specific cooperation activities for a limited period of time in conditions to be agreed on by all parties involved. Testing a new technological component or a new application that may benefit from new 5G capabilities is feasible in this framework, in that it allows for the use of 5TONIC’s infrastructure and also guarantees the protection of IPRs and confidentiality as established in the agreement.
Below you can see who we’re currently collaborating with. If you are interested in becoming a 5TONIC collaborator, contact us through our form.
