Program - Composites & Manufacturing Workshop Download Folder

INTRODUCTION

With advance technology comes the demand for materials that are cheaper, lighter or/and stronger. Composites materials come as a natural solution by combining two or more single materials into one piece with better performance.

Sweden has develop a broad knowledge in this field and has a structured and realistic forecast of the future of new materials and manufacturing, while Brazil has a great potential with growing R&D and companies in this area, making the integration between the countries, a prosperous scenario.

In this workshop, the participant is welcomed to have a more active role by identifying challenges and opportunities to, through setting a Swedish-Brazilian collaborative network, build solutions together with industrial, academic, experts and societal actors.
