ADDICTIONAL ACTIVITIES Mapping of the skills and project ideas scouting Pro-active approach for the preparation of project idea and consortia costitution Stimulate to use a multidisciplinary approach to participation to european projects
(es. multidisciplinary round tables coordination, thematic meetings, infodays) acting as trade-union among researchers fron different disciplinary areas
Central coordination of multisciplinary and strategic activities (es., EIT, Smart cities, FET Flagships, Human Resources Strategy for Researcher, Technological Cluster national)
Participation to consultation at Ue/National/Local level for the writing of agendas, guidelines ecc
Participation to European and national Clusters, both thematic and cross sectoriall, collecting all the different expertise
Central coordination of the relations with industrial partners Promoting of the mobility of researchers
Fund raising services: added value

“Marketing of innovation” and diffusion of research results of Politecnico towards companies (IFE)
Activities related to projects of significant interest to the University in partnership with actors of primary importance (Gm, Microsoft, Pirelli, etc) with particular attention to their integration in the Cittadella Politecnica
Technology scouting intended to bring out technologies with high potential for industrial exploitation (skills mapping and implementation of the information system)
Activities linked to the exploitation of “intellectual property” and “enterprise creation” (Research Spin-off) in collaboration with I3P, the Innovative Enterprise Incubator of the Politecnico

Results of years 2011-2012: Results of years 2011-2012:
Number of contacts received: about 180 Organizations/companies involved with relationship which started: 94 Total managed opportunities: 117 Teachers/researchers of the University involved in the opportunities: about 130 Contracts concluded through the intermediary of IFE: 12 Total value of resorces acquired by firms: 340.000€
The progress Greater visibility to the outside thanks to the creation of informational and
promotional materials and tools for marketing activities (brochures, website) Increased speed and accuracy in responding to requests from companies
thanks to the work of "mapping" that allowed us to know the research groups and their skills
Greater consensus and cooperation from the heads of research groups, aware of the opportunities that may arise thanks to the activity of IFE
Wider dissemination of scientific production, even for the benefit of technology transfer

Final remarksFinal remarks
Support research services at the Politecnico of Turin have been able to adapt, "changing skin" over time, and today are focused on an approach characterized by :continuous dialogue and integration between different structures, both internally and in the rest of the University SaRTTcontinuous attention in understanding the needs of our "customers" by increasing the ability to listen and consequently its ability to respond with a view to the problem solving
the desire to be recognized - both inside and outside - as "innovative actors' ready to adapt to the needs of external environment and to experience new projects, although with the attention to preserve the soundness and reliability of processes
