ICT Research and Development Center
PSNC provides access to a world-class e-Infrastructure for the scientific community, a specific research and development environment – DIGITAL SCIENCE – for “proof of concept” projects, prototyping or large-scale pilot projects. Another branch of our activity is in DIGITAL INDUSTRY, which is focused on the creation of innovations based on Information and Communication Technologies (ICT), i.e. the execution of specific implementations for various fields of science and industry. Equally important is our work in the context of SOCIAL INNOVATION to spread knowledge and awareness of contemporary technological opportunities among various social groups, as well as actively fighting against digital exclusion.
For 30 years, we have been open to extensive cooperation both with research institutions to explore new areas of scientific challenges in joint projects and with industry partners – new entrants or large companies for which our competence and experience can become a strong asset to develop competitive innovation. Come and join us!
