About us: Novel-T
You can contact us on various matters. For instance, a one on one conversation with a business developer, or participation in one of our programs and support through our services. In addition, we offer our target groups a direct line to knowledge, talent, capital, and networks of other market leaders. All of this can help with a successful market introduction. Moreover, we do our tasks independently in a non-profit environment. Finally, this enables us to quickly provide them with the right information, instruments, and inputs at the right time. We offer support based on an assignment from our founders: the University of Twente, Saxion University of Applied Sciences, and the regional government.

Our founders
Together for the best results
The strength of the region lies in the achievement of innovation. Over the years, we have shown that we can develop ground-breaking innovations based on collaboration and a pioneering mentality. Therefore, our founders join forces in Novel-T to create an ecosystem that aims to take advantage of opportunities for a sustainable, innovative industry. Because innovative companies shape the future. The new knowledge developed by the University of Twente and Saxion leads to new spin-off companies. These companies are the employers of the future. In turn, companies produce challenges that engage researchers and students. Students turn their ideas into new start-ups that can conquer the world. In the end, by working together and putting innovation and entrepreneurship first, we help each other to achieve the best results.
