Due diligence in science
Carefully assess potential international partners
Due diligence in science is the careful evaluation of potential cooperation partners, research topics and institutions in order to weigh the risks and opportunities of scientific cooperation.
Cooperation is built on trust, but in sensitive research areas careful screening is necessary to address legal, ethical and security considerations. The aim is to create transparency and legal certainty to protect research results, minimise compliance risks, and uphold institutional integrity.
