Slide1: 

to facilitate Dutch ICT scientific excellence and impact

Slide2: 

NIRICT bundles ICT research of the three universities of technology in NL (1200 scientists) in one virtual institute

Slide3: 

to create critical mass around a number of strategic areas Why join forces? to have impact by focusing on a limited number of ICT topics and ICT applications to be preferred partner in ICT research and innovation to contribute to the shape of the national and EU ICT research and innovation agenda

Slide4: 

NIRICT has three types of research agendas:

Slide5: 

SRA-1: Broadband Communication Systems
