About us
We accelerate industrial transformation in Europe.
DIMECC brings leading companies and research organizations together to drive industrial renewal, build new business and turn emerging technologies into practical solutions.
The company
An open company, owned by forerunners.
DIMECC is an open company, owned by forerunning companies in manufacturing and technology, as well as research organizations. DIMECC enables the collaborative innovation needed to share the risks, benefits, and costs of creating new business.
Customers create new methods and tools to develop the business of the future, and use the services to multiply the resources, know-how, and force they otherwise have at their disposal.
Co-creation and the underlying company values — efficiency, transparency, and respect for knowledge — are increasingly needed in a world where new business models do not respect organizational boundaries.
