Poznan University of Economics and Business Knowledge Transfer Company
Academic resources, business approach
The Company was established by the Notary Deed of August 7, 2014. It's university-owned but acts as a self-funding, limited liability company (SPV). The Company aims to implement market solutions based on scientific research results, offers consulting services for external entities, and conducts commissioned research to solve specific market, tech & management problems.
PUEB Knowledge Transfer Company is the first SPV established by an economic university in Poland. The specificity of research carried out in economics (the predominance of "soft results" over "hard solutions") makes the central area of the Company's activity to acquire and run development projects, in which the know-how of academics and creativity of students plays a key role.
From October 2014 to August 2023, the Company has completed 390+ development projects for 220+ companies and public institutions. Projects focus on strategic development issues (including developing new products, building new business models, and creating R&D strategies) and require constructing interdisciplinary teams and creating a dedicated research methodology.
