ESI and TNO

Originally founded in 2002, the former Embedded Systems Institute was integrated into TNO in January 2013 as the research group Embedded Systems Innovation by TNO (TNO-ESI). Its partners are the industry-leading companies ASML, Canon Production Printing, ITEC, Philips, Thales, Vanderlande and TNO, along with academic partners University of Amsterdam, Delft University of Technology, Eindhoven University of Technology, Radboud University and the University of Twente. Moreover, there are implementation partners: Capgemini Engineering and Strypes (ICT Group).
In October 2017, ESI became a so-called JIC (Joint Innovation Center), powered by industry, academia and TNO.
