Academia collaborations
Technology moves at a great pace, and it’s crucial for innovation to collaborate with selected partners in the technology ecosystem. Universities have become essential for innovation and are important research partners for Ericsson. Academia collaborations have long been a mainstay of our research.
Academia investments
Investments in university collaborations have a long term horizon. The focus is on forward-looking research and emerging technologies. We exchange knowledge, pick up new trends and technologies and build competence. Close collaboration between academia and Ericsson in-house researchers means that Ericsson can benefit from the latest academic research while providing industry relevance for university research projects and education programs.
Ericsson is currently working with around 300 academic organizations globally. A large part of the engagements are through public funded projects, other formats range from bilateral partnerships to jointly created research centers and personal mobility of employees.
