About
Inside

“New methodologies rely on new and better algorithms and formalisms that are often initially developed in academia and then have to be applied in real life. What Inside offers is the combination of university research, knowledge institutes like ours and industry itself, and this virtuous circle continuously brings the field further."

Wouter Leibbrandt

Science and operations director at TNO

Inside is the Industry Association that strives for a leading position of Europe in Intelligent Digital Systems. The Association is a membership organisation for the European R&I actors with more than 200 members and associates from all over Europe.

The multidisciplinary nature of the membership provides an excellent network for the exchange of technology ideas, build together strategic R&I agenda’s, cross-domain fertilisation, as well as for large innovation initiatives.

Inside is one of the three private partners of the KDT JU, a Joint Undertaking based on a tripartite governing model between the Participating States, the European Commission and the private sector as represented by three Industry Associations. Previously we were partner in ECSEL-JU & ARTEMIS-JU.

Together, we strive that the industrial world and academic community are supported and get funds contributing to create innovative, competitive, trustworthy, and sustainable solutions for the European industry and for European key application domains, in respect of European values.

By being involved you help shape the future. For STMicroelectronics we have ‘inside’ information that can be put to good use for future business opportunities.”

The Inside
vision

What’s driving the Inside Industry Association? That mankind should benefit from a major evolution in our society, whereby our world is widely supported by Intelligent Digital Systems and System(s) of Systems.

A world in which all systems, machines and objects become smart, to exploit digital information and services around them, through communication with the environment and with people, and where possible managing their resources autonomously.
