It was inspiring to see the industry pushing boundaries, yet the huge potential of public grants for exactly such innovations remains largely untouched. Programs like the EIC Accelerator, German Forschungszulage, and many others could all be used more effectively to further accelerate the speed and scale of these groundbreaking developments. If you’re developing something within the carbon capture space - or in any other industry - let’s connect and explore how public funding could elevate your innovation to the next level! www.auxilo.de AUXILO
