Education & Knowledge

One of our primary goals is to spread and secure knowledge about the entire open field production supply chain. We focus on applied science and research, on the knowledge transfer between schools and businesses, and from business to business. By doing this, want to discuss and resolve the existing gap between school-knowledge and business-knowledge. Please, find below an overview of all our activities in this field:
