Matchmaking in Leoben

Under the motto ‘Materials Research for Energy Transformation,’ a high-profile matchmaking event took place on 2 July 2025 at Montanuniversität Leoben. The aim of the event was to connect researchers from different disciplines and develop new project ideas for the future of energy technologies.

The Department of Polymer Engineering and Science was also well represented at the event. For example, Katharina Resch-Fauster (Institute of Materials Science and Testing of Polymers) took part in a panel discussion on the topic of ‘Challenges and Opportunities of Energy Transformation,’ and Christine Bandl (Institute of Chemistry of Polymeric Materials) gave a presentation together with Stefan Spirk (Ecolyte GmbH) on their joint project ‘Vanilla Flow.’
