Building a Bridge in Europe between Research and Industry in the Energy Sector

KIC InnoEnergy with partner Steinbeis Europa Zentrum cordially invite you to the KIC InnoEnergy Industry Conference taking place from 10th till 11th December 2012 in Stuttgart. Come to the conference and find out about KIC InnoEnergy's activities fostering the knowledge triangle of education, research and business creation. The event is the place to be for stakeholders from economy, industry, education and politics to exchange opinions about the “Energiewende” and the knowledge transfer.

The KIC InnoEnergy Industry Conference puts special focus on the KIC InnoEnergy knowledge triangle „Education, Innovation and Business“, and the interaction of the six Co-Location Centres. Keynote presentations and workshops give you the opportunity to learn more about the highlights in the six KIC InnoEnergy Co-locations, and in particular about the currently funded innovation projects, and the products and services thereof developed close to the market.

The conference provides you valuable information about the added value through partnerships, funding or project collaboration that KIC InnoEnergy offers to research or business activities:

• KIC InnoEnergy transfers knowledge - presentation of Innovation Projects within the ‚Energiewende‘;
• KIC InnoEnergy educates - contents and objectives of KIC InnoEnergy’s education programs;
• KIC InnoEnergy supports entrepreneurship - selected entrepreneurs present innovative project ideas to chosen investors followed by an Idea Assessment.

What's more, during the pre-programme, you can take part in the inauguration of the ‘European Network of Women for Innovative Energy Solutions (Women4Energy)’.

The conference will provide the chance for extensive networking with high potentials and decision makers from the energy sector. Hence, we particularly encourage project partners and co-workers from all KIC InnoEnergy co-location centres to join the conference to foster the exchange and collaboration within KIC InnoEnergy.
