Science for Business

We are an interdisciplinary scientific team investigating the environmental impact on the well-being of human and animals. We appreciate cooperation and put a significant emphasis on the quality.

We conduct basic and applied research using a modern research infrastructure, providing access to a variety of research models in the area of food technology and food analysis, biotechnology, microbiology, molecular biology, as well as human and animal health.

We offer research and development partnerships, analyses, expert assessments, internships, training, and implementation of joint projects aimed to foster the development of the agri-food sector.

We focus on development and innovation, as well as individual and complex problem-solving. A considerable international experience proves that cooperation of science and business brings tangible benefits. These benefits are mutual and contribute to an improved quality of life, promote entrepreneurship and strengthen a favourable image of the scientific centers, the region and the country.

Our cooperation offer is addressed to both livestock and fish farmers, producers of feed, raw materials, components and food packaging, as well as manufacturers and producers from other sectors of the agri-food industry: dairy, meat, fish, bakery and confectionery, fruit and vegetables, beverages and juices, cereal-milling.

You are welcome to cooperate with us.
