TechConnect Adlershof: Grand Challenges

Monday, 06. November 2023 // 15.00 - 18.00

Berlin Science Week, WISTA Management GmbH

Rudower Chaussee 24, 12489 Berlin
Forum Adlershof, Hans-Grade-Saal

Flyer TechConnect Techologiepark Adlershof im Rahmen der Berlin Science Week

Material Innovation: the role of new materials to enable the circular economy.

Solutions to complex (global) challenges rarely emerge from a single discipline. Instead, they require inter- and transdisciplinary collaboration. As the management of the science and technology park Adlershof, we recognise our role in fostering innovation and knowledge transfer to tackle these Grand Challenges, such as climate change, resource scarcity and biodiversity loss.

WISTA Management GmbH introduces "TechConnect Adlershof: Grand Challenges," an event series designed to be the epicentre of knowledge exchange for a dynamic community passionate about addressing the Grand Challenges. In this first event, we harness the transformative potential of material technologies and circular economy practices to propel us toward a sustainable future.

In today's world, sustainability and climate-driven actions are non-negotiable. The intersection of our natural environment with the global economy has never been more urgent, calling for a comprehensive approach to resource use. Circular Materials Innovation offers a key to unlocking sustainable solutions across industries, reshaping economies and societies.

Material technologies are the driving force behind groundbreaking innovations that combat today's pressing challenges. From healthcare to renewable energy, these technologies pave the way for sustainable consumption and production, reducing resource consumption while enhancing environmental protection. Circular economy principles, on the other hand, advocate for maximizing product and material value through extended lifecycles and closed-loop systems. Together, material technologies and the circular economy principles create a profound impact with the potential to address complex environmental challenges.

Join us on November 6, 2023, during Berlin Science Week, where regional experts, innovative institutions, forward-thinking companies and aspiring innovators converge to share solutions, unlock untapped potential, and inspire meaningful action and explore:

  • What solutions are being developed in Adlershof and Berlin?
  • How can we align material innovation with circular principles for sustainable progress?
  • What challenges and opportunities exist along the material value chain

    Great challenges, great future

    The Science City in Adlershof is booming. Space has become scarce. Has this success story been told? Far from it. Why? Because there are so many new things happening in Berlin’s southeast. The future is exciting.
