Industry Collaborations

Collaborating on AI challenges

FAIR facilitates direct collaboration between organizations and AI researchers to explore opportunities, validate ideas and develop future innovation trajectories. Our activities focus on pre-competitive research and shared value creation, complementing existing market offerings and commercial services.

Whether you are exploring a challenge, assessing technical feasibility or looking for expertise within a specific AI domain, FAIR can help connect your organization with relevant researchers across the Flemish AI ecosystem.

From idea to collaboration

FAIR helps organizations move from an initial challenge or opportunity towards a concrete collaboration model, which may include:

• funded innovation projects;

• enrichment projects;

• European collaborations;

• contract research through consortium partners;

• longer-term innovation trajectories.

All activities are designed to complement, not compete with, the market, focusing on pre-competitive research, emerging AI technologies and shared value creation. As a publicly funded research program, FAIR focuses on research-driven innovation and knowledge transfer rather than commercial service delivery.
