Last week, we brought the CBI community together for the first “CBI meets Startup”. The goal: connecting our department’s research with the agility of the startup world. 🚀 During a poster session, PhD students and P*s from the CBI chairs presented their research to startups, colleagues, and students alike. Our students had the opportunity to challenge ideas and discover how their studies in Biotechnology, Chemical and Biological Engineering, Energy Technology, and Clean Energy Processes can translate into real-world impact. 🧪☀️ ♻️💡 The poster session was followed by inspiring talks and discussions with our guest speakers Steffen Leimbach (Litherm Technologies GmbH), Andreas Reichert (Lumatix Biotech), Gerhard Schöny (DACworx), and Andreas Schuster (Orcan Energy). Many thanks for sharing your insights and entrepreneurial perspectives with our community! 😊👏 Big thanks as well to for providing cake, pretzels, and refreshments. 🥧🥨🤗
