1. Systematic and intensive generation of innovations in hotspots through exploratory, empirical and experimental research carried out in close interaction with users and applications on the basis of experimentalinteraction with users and applications, on the basis of experimental platforms, and creation of new culture for co-creativity

2. Set up an agile and iterative process where the cycle of basic research, engineering research, experimental studies in lab or field, and data analysis of the results can be executed in weeks, not years

3 Focus on excellence in research based on a co-location of the best3. Focus on excellence in research based on a co-location of the best academic and industry researchers, attract and involve top-notch researchers into our activities

4. Exploitation of scientific breakthroughs
