The Danish Academy of Technical Sciences (ATV – Akademiet for de Tekniske Videnskaber) is an independent, non-profit organization. ATV's objective is to promote technological and scientific research and to ensure the application of research results to the benefit of society. Thus, ATV strives to promote innovation by means of technology, research and education. ATV's key issues are to strengthen the technical and natural sciences in the Danish educational system and to strengthen the competitiveness of Danish companies through technological development. Recently, ATV has also focused on how technology can contribute to solve global problems by providing sustainable food and energy systems, climate adaptation, and urban development. The members of ATV are elected in a co-opting process according to their personal competences and their strong professional expertise. ATV has approximately 700 members of which most are distinguished scientists and research and development managers at universities and private companies. == Working method == The academy members work unpaid on a voluntary basis supported by a professional secretariat consisting of ten employees. ATV does not conduct scientific research per se, but works on establishing and improving the right settings for others. This is done by means of expert commissions, cross-disciplinary cases, publishing reports, memoranda and minutes, hearing statements, arranging conferences and seminars, contributing papers and letters in the media, and keeping in dialogue with decision-makers in the public and private sectors. The Academy considers itself to be the neutral meeting place for private companies and universities, thus contributing to and encouraging co-operation as to research and innovation. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Akademiet for de Tekniske Videnskaber」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
