Integrating values, ethics, and societal needs into successful research projects

Why Ethical Integration Matters

Funding agencies such as FFGHorizon Europe, and other international programmes increasingly expect applicants to address social and ethical impacts.

Working with innovethic helps you: 

  • Strengthen the overall quality and competitiveness of your proposal 
  • Unlock the positive societal potential of your innovation 
  • Avoid ethical, legal, and social risks 
  • Ensure compliance with emerging regulations such as the EU AI Act 

Ethics is no longer a “nice-to-have” – it is a decisive success factor in research and innovation.

Our contribution to research projects

We translate ethics into hands-on innovation work: 

Identify values & principles

      • based on moral philosophy, stakeholder perspectives, and human rights 

Translate into system requirements

      • concrete, testable, design-relevant requirements for developers 

Implement ethical, socially desirable innovations

      • ensuring alignment with laws, standards, and the EU AI Act 

This process makes compliance simple, structured, and transparent.
