High Tech Systems and Materials (HTSM)


The top sector HTSM brings together industry, academia and government to drive technological breakthroughs in key enabling technologies.

By fostering collaboration and aligning research with national innovation strategies, HTSM strengthens the Netherlands’ global position in high-tech systems and materials. The program stimulates cutting-edge fundamental and applied research, turning knowledge into innovative applications that address major societal and industrial challenges.

TNO-ESI actively contributes to this ambition through multiple projects within the HTSM programme. Our expertise in systems engineering and systems architecting translates into advanced methods and tools that help tackle the complexity of high-tech systems. Acting as a bridge between universities and industry, we ensure that scientific insights become practical solutions. The execution of the HTSM program is coordinated by Holland High Tech, reinforcing the collaborative spirit that drives innovation forward.
