Ophiz Research is an independent research unit founded in 2016 to address a persistent gap between academic research and real-world needs.
Across universities and research institutions, high-quality research is produced every day. Yet much of this knowledge remains confined to academic journals and specialist forums, limiting its ability to inform public policy, institutional practice, and community decision-making.
Ophiz Research exists to bridge this gap.
We translate rigorous academic research into clear, accessible, and actionable insight—supporting evidence-based decision-making, policy development, and societal transformation.
What We Do
Ophiz Research works at the intersection of research, policy, and society.
Our work focuses on:
- Translating academic research into practical knowledge
- Supporting evidence-based public policy and institutional decision-making
- Facilitating interdisciplinary and cross-sector collaboration
- Strengthening the societal relevance and accessibility of research
Research with Integrity
Ophiz Research operates independently and does not engage in commercial sales or trade.
All activities are guided by academic standards, methodological rigor, ethical responsibility, and transparency. The aim is not advocacy or promotion, but clarity, understanding, and informed action.
International Scope
Rooted in Slovenia and collaborating across the European Union and beyond, Ophiz Research contributes to local, national, and EU-level initiatives addressing complex social, technological, and policy challenges.
