New Hampshire's history is a testament to the spirit of innovation ingrained in our community. From the earliest settlers harnessing waterpower for sawmills to the Revolutionary War driving shipbuilding efforts, innovation has always been in our DNA. The dominance of textile mills in the 19th century, exemplified by Manchester's Amoskeag Manufacturing Company, showcased our relentless pursuit of progress. As we transitioned into the 20th century, embracing technological advancements led to the birth of aerospace and defense giants like BAE Systems. Today, as a burgeoning tech hub with companies like DEKA Research & Development leading the charge, we continue to honor our legacy through education, collaboration, and forward-thinking initiatives. The Granite State's future is bright, fueled by our unwavering commitment to innovation and industry.

🌍 Pushing Boundaries in agriculture, healthcare and energy: Precision technology as a vital link 🌱⚙️ Precision technology, with #components crafted to micrometre accuracy, forms the foundation of innovations we need to address major societal challenges. This year, international collaboration takes centre stage at the Precision Fair, showcasing what the Dutch precision technology industry can offer to the world. In the International Cooperation Area, we’ll feature a range of NXTGEN Hightech projects that illustrate the impact of these partnerships. In our latest article, Monika Hoekstra (National Growth Fund, NXTGen Hightech), Pauline Roels (VSPARTICLE) and Gerard Rauwerda (Technolution) share their insights on precision technology as a driving force for solutions in agriculture, healthcare, and energy. 📖 Read the article (in Dutch) to discover how groundbreaking collaborations are shaping a sustainable future! https://okt.to/Cxo1SQ #Precisionfair #NXTGENHightech #precisiontechnology #internationalcollaboration #innovation

Eindhoven-based startup Spectrik's innovative real-time sensor could be the key to resolving the Dutch nitrogen struggle. By providing farmers and policymakers with accurate data on nitrogen emissions, Spectrik aims to navigate through the complexities of the 'nitrogen conflict' and foster sustainable solutions.   CEO, Rick Jongen, highlights the significance of their integrated photonics-based sensor in revolutionising emission monitoring, paving the way for informed decision-making and tailored emission reduction strategies.   Read more about Spectrik's approach and its potential impact on environmental sustainability here: https://bit.ly/3xIafCv #Spectrik #IntegratedPhotonics #PICs #IntegratedPhotonicsBasedSensor

𝗥𝗲𝘀𝗲𝗮𝗿𝗰𝗵 𝗰𝗵𝗮𝗹𝗹𝗲𝗻𝗴𝗲: 𝗔𝗰𝗰𝗲𝗽𝘁𝗲𝗱! Since October 2023, we have been working even more closely with Fraunhofer IKTS and 5microns GmbH. We are conducting joint research in the ERDF-funded project "𝗣𝗢𝘅𝗜𝗥: 𝗣𝗿𝗼𝗱𝘂𝗰𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻 𝗼𝗳 𝗣𝗼𝗹𝘆𝗰𝗿𝘆𝘀𝘁𝗮𝗹𝗹𝗶𝗻𝗲 𝗢𝘅𝗶𝗱𝗲 𝗜𝗥 𝗪𝗶𝗻𝗱𝗼𝘄𝘀 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝘁𝗵𝗲𝗶𝗿 𝗜𝗻𝘁𝗲𝗴𝗿𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻 𝗶𝗻𝘁𝗼 𝗮𝗻 𝗜𝗥 𝗦𝗲𝗻𝘀𝗼𝗿". Our goal until September 2026: The development of an IR window and its integration into an IR sensor, based on materials and manufacturing processes that are characterized as resource-saving and environmentally friendly.  The funding is provided by the “FTI-Thüringen Technologie” program as part of the European Regional Development Fund (ERDF).  Promising initial approaches have already been developed in the first months of the project. Many thanks to our strong project partners - we look forward to continuing our collaboration. #erdf #efre #research #sustainable #ir #innovation #ceramic #thuringia #electronicsolutions

Out now! The latest edition of Re:action, the University of Southampton's research and enterprise magazine, which I'm proud to write and edit with the talented Sophie Lister. This time we showcase how the commercialisation of cutting-edge university research leads to life-changing real-world impacts. It's crammed with fascinating stories of the different routes to market taken by our academic colleagues: from developing new cancer therapies in partnership with industry, to the University spin-out creating hollow-core optical fibre technology so exciting that Microsoft bought the company. We hear how experience from history is being used to help tackle contemporary challenges, and about the Southampton mathematicians helping make our oceans cleaner. And we highlight the ways in which the University nurtures enterprise, including via our colleagues in University of Southampton Innovations & Enterprise. It was a privilege to hear these and many other stories. Grab a cuppa ☕ and have a read 📖 https://lnkd.in/eWCvwR2v

Huge congratulations to our friends 🤗 at SYMBA EU Project!

The latest issue of the University of Southampton Re:Action magasine is out, and it is, once again, inspiring to witness the brilliant achievements of our colleagues.💡 This publications powerfully highlights how the Triple Helix approach permeates all aspects of university, with staff from research, teaching and enterprise coming together to create societal impact and address real-world problem. 👏 Read the latest issue of Re:action to discover the incredible work happening across our university- you won't regret it! 💯 #enterprise #commersialisation #KEF #KnowledgeExchange

We have the great pleasure to announce that our COMET-K1 project “𝗖𝗲𝗻𝘁𝗿𝗲 𝗳𝗼𝗿 𝗖𝗶𝗿𝗰𝘂𝗹𝗮𝗿𝗶𝘁𝘆, 𝗙𝘂𝗻𝗰𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻𝗮𝗹𝗶𝘁𝘆 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗗𝗶𝗴𝗶𝘁𝗮𝗹𝗶𝘇𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻 𝗶𝗻 𝗣𝗼𝗹𝘆𝗺𝗲𝗿 𝗧𝗲𝗰𝗵𝗻𝗼𝗹𝗼𝗴𝗶𝗲𝘀” will be funded by the FFG Österreichische Forschungsförderungsgesellschaft mbH and the Austrian federal provinces of Styria via Steirische Wirtschaftsförderung SFG, Upper Austria and Vorarlberg for a further four-years funding period from 2025 to 2028. The declared goals are to contribute to the solution to current global problems related to the production, application and disposal of polymer-based products and to provide answers with high socio-economic impacts. With its active role in the circularity and sustainability of polymers, our consortium of 18 scientific and 40 company partners will increase its contributions to both the UN Sustainability Goals and the Green New Deal for Europe. Therefore, 16 individual projects with a total volume of 22.6 million euros were jointly defined in an ambitious research programme. #PCCL #COMET #funding #research #innovation #greenfuture #polymers
