STRATAGEM participated in the Kick off meeting of EsSENce Project – High-performance Carbon-based composites with Smart properties for Advanced Sensing Applications, a COST Action funded by Horizon 2020 Framework Programme of the European Union (CA19118). The meeting took place virtually on the 21st and 22nd of October with 33 parties from whole Europe. EsSENce, brings together experts from different countries, either COST Member countries, COST Inclusiveness Target Countries (ITCs), Near Neighbour Countries (NNCs) and International Partner Countries (IPCs), to establish a business network of collaborations across borders and sectoral boundaries, to transfer and disseminate the existing knowledge and innovations on Carbon based (nano)materials and nanocomposites for sensing applications.
The goal of EsSENce is to develop an innovation scientific hub at European and International level, focusing on advanced composite materials reinforced with Carbon based (nano)materials (CNMs). The sharing of ideas and results will boost the development of high-performance composites with sensing properties. Special focus will be given in the utilization of these materials for the introduction of smart properties to the final composites and their application in the field of sensors development. The aim of EsSENce hub, which is defined as a collaborative community, is hence to gather together scientific partners, research groups, technology providers and industrial key players to enhance sharing of ideas and collaboration among them, by positioning the entrepreneurial individuals at the center.
STRATAGEM is being part of this networking channel and gain opportunities for researchers and innovators in order to strengthen Europe’s capacity to address scientific, technological and societal challenges. The Exploitation and Dissemination activities are led by STRATAGEM and more specific STRATAGEM is in charge of the internal and external public relations within and outside the hub.
More to come as this was just the beginning!
THIS PROJECT HAS RECEIVED FUNDING FROM THE HORIZON 2020 FRAMEWORK PROGRAMME OF THE EUROPEAN UNION UNDER COST ACTION CA19118.
