On August 28, the Nanochem consortium welcomed its Scientific and Innovation Advisory Board to Sønderborg. The meeting gathered board members from academia and industry alongside the project’s steering and management teams.
The day began with an introduction to the NANOCHEM project by Till Leißner, Eva Arnspang Christensen, Jonathan Brewer, Jakob Birkedal Wagner, and Kjeld Pedersen, followed by presentations from Advisory Board members:
- Dorthe Berg Buciek (Danfoss)
- Gregor Hlavacek (Helmholtz-Zentrum)
- Lorenz Kienle (CAU Kiel)
- Dorthe Posselt (RUC)
- Esben Skovsen (AAU)
- Duncan Sutherland (AU)
- Bjarke Jørgensen (NEWTEC)
- Carsten Gundlach (DTU)
Discussions centered on experiences with research infrastructures, strategies for attracting users, and financial models for operating shared facilities. The meeting concluded with a laboratory tour at SDU and a joint dinner, providing further opportunities for exchange and collaboration.
We thank all Advisory Board members for their valuable input and look forward to continued dialogue as the project develops.
