Opening event for the CSEM Battery Innovation Hub

(Dieser Event findet nur auf Englisch statt)
Switzerland's future is electric, so we're pooling our energy expertise into a new Battery Innovation Hub. At the CSEM Battery Innovation Hub, we'll collaborate closely with local industry to develop ground-breaking battery solutions.

Switzerland's energy future is electric, whether in transport, factories, or homes. But the revolution needed to power this transition calls for innovative energy storage solutions. To provide these solutions, we are pooling our many years of energy expertise in a brand-new facility, called the Battery Innovation Hub. Multiple interdisciplinary teams will join forces, working in close collaboration with local industry representatives to develop battery solutions for the future, with the aim of quickly transferring these solutions to industry, strengthening Switzerland's status as a leading innovator in this promising sector. The CSEM Battery Innovation Hub is supported by the Cantonal Bank of Neuchâtel, BCN.

Venue: This event will take place at the Battery Innovation Hub, Rue de Monruz 17, 2002 Neuchâtel.

Language: This event will be held in English.
