Knowledge transfer

Knowledge & technology transfer

Research only has real benefit when it finds application in practice. The Institute of Spa and Balneology systematically translates research results into healthcare, spa care, public administration and the business sector. Through cooperation with the application sphere we support the creation of innovations, the validation of new solutions and their implementation into everyday practice.
