Recruiting Day the point of contact for initial discussions
The Recruiting Day on the third day of the fair proved very popular and showed that POWTECH and the Networking Campus are ideally suited to provide initial contacts between employees and potential job applicants.
PARTEC: Particle technology rooted in everyday life
PARTEC, the internationally renowned Congress for Particle Technology, was also a great success. It offered 500 delegates from 30 countries the opportunity to gain new inspiration and expert knowledge at first hand. Under the theme “Particles for a better Life”, representatives of the particle technology sector had plenty of opportunities to explore and discuss particle technology with reference to various aspects of everyday life like cosmetics, medicines and cleaning products. In the English-language programme, a total of six keynote speakers offered deep insights into areas like additive manufacturing, CO2 reduction and future technologies from the life sciences. At PARTEC, 250 lectures and the exhibition of 180 research posters provided a comprehensive overview.
Accolade for excellence in research
During the PARTEC opening ceremony, the honorary sponsor of the conference, the VDI Association of Process and Chemical Engineering (GVC), presented the Friedrich Löffler Award to Junior Professor Carsten Schilde from the Technical University of Brunswick. In his work, the scientist combines basic research in particle technology with cutting-edge, product-related R&D. This award for up-and-coming talent honours young experts from industry and the research community who have rendered exceptional service in the areas particle research, particle technology and product design.
