Quoting http://ec.europa.eu/dgs/education_culture/valorisation/doc/def_en.pdf:

Originally a French term, valorisation is a concept which is now widely used and accepted in the European educational and training community. It can be described as the process of disseminating and exploiting the results of projects with a view to optimising their value, strengthening their impact, transferring them, integrating them in a sustainable way and using them actively in systems and practices at local, regional, national and European levels.

Or quoting http://nl.wikipedia.org/wiki/Valorisatie (in Dutch):

Valorisatie is het door universiteiten ter beschikking stellen van academische kennis aan de maatschappij in het algemeen, en het bedrijfsleven in het bijzonder.

Among the activities by KdVI which can be considered as valorisation, the following stand out.

SURFnet project for prof. dr. Michel Mandjes

KdVI has signed a contract to perform research for SURFnet, the provider of the Dutch academic high speed network. This project will focus on the development of mathematical methods that support design and management of this network, and will extensively rely on novel probabilistic and statistical techniques. Piotr Zuraniewski, who is working towards his PhD at KdVI, will be full-time employed to work on the project, and Michel Mandjes will play a supervision role.

Prof. dr. Jan van de Craats

Jan van de Craats, who has a part-time affiliation as full professor Mathematics and Society with KdVI, is one of the forerunners in popularizing mathematics outside academia. In recent years he plays an important role in initiatives to restore technical math abilities in the curriculum of Dutch high schools and elementary schools.
