>> This World Materials Summit in Europe, will be the fourth in a series that has circulated the globe over the past six years.
>> Viewed from a strategic perspective, Advanced Materials are the basis for key enabling technologies. Consequently this field, ranging from R&D to manufacturing, is regarded worldwide as a driver for sustainable economic growth.
>> The European Commission, e.g., identified especially Advanced Materials as one out of 6 Key Enabling Technologies ensuring that European industry can compete successfully on the global stage. Mastering Advanced Materials help to transform – mature as well as new innovative – industries from resource intensive to knowledge intensive ones.
>> This World Summit is therefore very timely in view of the ongoing economic crisis across the globe. It will provide a unique forum for discussing global research, development and innovation issues for materials for energy. It will provide a series of recommendations for Policy Makers designed to accelerate the contribution that Advanced Materials can make to accelerate global economic growth.
