FURIOUS Webinar Series
Evolution and progress. Advances in society have improved the quality of life for humanity. A good example is the wheel, a revolutionary invention that forever changed transport, agriculture and industry by allowing heavy loads to be moved with much less effort.
Can you imagine a world without cars, buses or motorhomes? Probably not. Today, they are an essential part of our daily lives. But even great advances have their challenges. One of them is our dependence on fossil fuels.
What if we could change that? What if we could continue to advance as a society, but towards a greener and more sustainable future?
At FURIOUS, we want to tell you how this is already happening. Together, with other European projects, we are promoting an initiative to share the latest advances in research into sustainable materials for the automotive industry.
Who is this webinar aimed at?
- Universities and research centres working on sustainable polymers, advanced materials, polymer chemistry or materials processing.
- The automotive sector, both industry and suppliers of innovative solutions
- European and national policymakers, regulatory authorities, funding agencies, standardisation bodies and entities linked to sustainably and the circular economy.
- If you do not belong to any of these groups but are interested in sustainability, the circular economy and a greener future, feel free to join us!
Webinar 1: From Lab to Road: Biobased Polymers and Composites for Automotive Applications
Description: The first webinar of the From Lab to Road series brings together three EU-funded research projects – FURIOUS, THERMOFIRE and POLYMEER – to share research perspectives on biobased polymers and composites for automotive applications. The session will provide an overview of current approaches, challenges and areas of common interest across the projects.
