The Zurich Innovation Park creates a new platform for research, development and innovation on the site of the Dübendorf airfield. It promotes collaboration and knowledge exchange between Zurich's renowned universities, research institutions and universities of applied sciences with the private sector with the aim of supporting and accelerating the translation of research findings into marketable products and services. In the start-up phase, the Innovation Park focuses on the establishment of hubs in Robotics & Mobility and Space. The Zurich Innovation Park Foundation is responsible for setting up and operating the park.
