Infrastructure for industrial development: instruments for material research through academia-industry collaboration
Date and time
Tuesday, 8 December 2020 14:00 - 17:00
Industry must be encouraged to use research infrastructure more, and one way is to ensure that information about research infrastructure is made available. Industrial companies need clear information about the instruments available in universities, the type of materials challenges each instrument is appropriate for, and how to gain access to each instrument.
On 8 December, Big Science Sweden and the ÅMA Ångström Materials Academy will be holding a seminar on research infrastructure for industrial development. Representatives from selected research infrastructures and industrial companies are invited to share information and discuss the potential of different instruments, including how they can be used in technical development.
