What is ICON ?

11/04/2023 20

“The ICON model works.”

Lieven Danneels, president of VOKA West-Flanders

Member ICT Board Agoria

www.innovatieraad.be

“Because of interdisciplinary collaboration, our engineers can broaden their horizon and gain insights that are beyond engineering”

22

“The interface of two different worlds (industry and academic) will definitely lead to the development of new concepts and products”

Quotes from the Accio project

“By being immersed in the daily work practices of the users, the research results are based on actual context rather than on assumptions”

Why is the ICON model so successful?

• Two for one: iMinds and IWT

Partnership model• Innovation clusters

• Value chain
