Global challenges meet local solutions at TechConnect 2024! How can we accelerate the energy transition?
Securing a sustainable energy future is not only a global goal but an urgent necessity. Addressing global climate change, adapting to its impacts, and meeting the rapidly growing energy demand pose significant challenges for research and development. Efficient, scalable, and environmentally friendly energy systems are required to enhance the integration of renewable energy. Every stage of the process—from energy generation to storage, efficient use, and distribution—relies on profound technological innovations, with material science playing a central role.
Such technological breakthroughs, however, cannot be viewed in isolation. Their successful implementation in industrial applications requires strong networking and knowledge exchange across disciplines and sectors.
This is where TechConnect comes in: The event brings together key stakeholders from science, innovation, industry, and policy to discuss the latest developments in material science and their applications in energy storage and conversion.
WISTA Management GmbH invites you to this year’s TechConnect Adlershof, a dynamic event to explore the future of energy storage and conversion technologies through the lens of material science. This event will showcase innovative solutions from research, startups, and industry, and hopefully foster collaboration to address the pressing energy challenges of today and tomorrow.
