Mission & Goals

The Biomimetics Competence Network (BIOKON) was founded in 2001. BIOKON connects experts from academia, industry and research institutes with a focus on research and development in biomimetics. It is the aim of the network to integrate biomimetics in research and development, education, economy, policy and society, and to connect the participating stakeholders.
