About Us
Innovating Together to Shape the Future of Business and Technology
Research-driven Projects
RT’s research and development division can assist in bringing innovations, a sense of sustainability, and constant growth to your business.
No product on the market would be successful if it did not evolve. There is always the possibility of being replaced by something more interesting, brighter, and cheaper. Without innovation and continuous research and development, your competitive advantage would be fleeting and transient. Innovative activities and R&D projects with RT Research enable you to achieve sustainable competitive advantage.
RT Research works across multiple domains encompassing consumer, retail, logistics, health and wellbeing, travel and hospitality and finance. Our location in Switzerland’s Lake Geneva region and our collaboration with Innovaud puts us in a unique position with unparalleled access to an ecosystem with more than 2,000 technology companies employing over 50,000 highly skilled professionals. We also collaborate with leading academic institutions worldwide – EPFL, a renowned engineering school, and HEIG-VD, a school of engineering and management are at our doorstep.
The creation of such projects has many long-term advantages in solving various problems, such as compliance with standards and ensuring environmental safety, use and sale of intellectual property products, maintenance of production, implementation of new equipment and technologies, etc.
RT Research brings years of real-world commercial experience in realizing research and innovation through practical adoption and implementation.
