application-oriented

"wirtschaftsnah" is often used as a synonym for "anwendungsorientiert" - e.g.

"Wirtschaftsnahe Forschung:
Die anwendungsorientierte Forschung ist eine zentrale Aufgabe im FPL. ..."
http://www.fpl.uni-stuttgart.de/Forschung/forschung.html

"Miscellaneous. We have interests in a wide range of research areas,
from fundamental to application-oriented research. Projects. ..."
nlp.shef.ac.uk/research/research.html

It might sound better if you put the institutes first:

"Institutes engaged in application-oriented R&D"

Laut Gabler bedeutet "wirtschaftsnah", dass es sich um einen Bereich handelt, der unmittelbaren Vorleistungscharakter für die privatwirtschaftliche Produktion hat (z. B. Verkehr oder Telekommunkation).

Vielleicht hilft Dir das weiter.
