Nāst projects and initiatives - where the vision becomes reality
Turning innovation into action
We believe true innovation happens through collaboration — and that’s where you come in. At Näst Innovation Destination, cutting-edge facilities and a vibrant co-creation process invite you to contribute your expertise. Together with industry, academia, and the public sector, we’re building an environment where bold ideas become real solutions in areas like sustainable energy, advanced materials, mobility, and software. This is where tomorrow’s innovations are developed, tested, and brought to life.
