Surfaces and interfaces are key to the performance and sustainability of intelligent material systems by increasing product efficiency and life time as well as reducing the use of scarce bulk materials. The Materials IQ platform contributes to innovations that save recources, improve the durability of technical components and extend their functionality in the circular economy.
Over 600 Materials IQ workshop participants are already part of the community, providing a rich source of world-leading expertise to support innovation of advanced materials systems. Materials IQ workshops
– provide overviews on emerging future surface technologies
– spark innovation by supporting the identification and alining of complementary resources and mutual objectives to pursuing opportunities and new prospects with network activities.
The interactive and professionally moderated platform events are open to all interested practitioners, industry experts and academics. Learn more about our innovation platform Materials IQ
