National Hellenic Research Foundation

The National Hellenic Research Foundation is an established nonprofit research center in Athens with a multidisciplinary character spanning the sciences and humanities. Its three institutes share laboratory infrastructure, high-tech equipment, research databases, and central project-management support, enabling collaboration across institutional boundaries and with universities and research organizations. A dedicated Technology Transfer Office supports invention protection, commercial evaluation, licensing, industry collaboration, and spin-off formation, giving corporate R&D teams a clear route into the Foundation’s research environment. Research is supported through competitive Greek national programs, European Union framework funding, and collaborations with public and private organizations.
