Networking with partners from science, the city and business
JenaVersum – space for visionary thinking
As a cooperative network, JenaVersum strengthens the dialogue between science, society and business. Our common goal is to create optimal conditions for excellent research, to communicate the strength of the location globally and to further develop the common living space.
In November 2021, JenaVersum was founded as non-profit association for the promotion of science and research.

What are the goals of JenaVersum?
Goals JenaVersum
Graphic: JenaVersumMore than 150 kick-off talks were held to identify the goals of JenaVersum. The structured collaboration of the partners in JenaVersum promotes the networking of actors from science, the city and businesses in the region and is committed to interdisciplinarity and a culture of cooperation. The collaboration with the partners is intended to increase international visibility and support recruitment. A further aim of the network is the transfer of knowledge, to broaden the spectrum of transfer activities, to strengthen the credibility of science in society and to counteract the fragmentation of the research landscape. With the Future Conference 2023, concrete fields of action for the next three to five years were identified in the network, which are now being implemented.
