As Leading House of the Innovation Booster Plastics for Zero Emission and together with our partner Innovation Booster Carbon Removal, we would like to invite you to a conference at Empa in Dübendorf on 6 June 2024 As various industries are beginning their journey towards net zero, we invite you to gain insights into existing approaches to mitigating CO2 emissions in different sectors and to explore novel and innovative ideas for achieving carbon removal beyond emissions reductions. We aim to bring together established industry players, scientists, and start-ups in order to exchange thoughts and discuss ideas for advancing the industry towards net zero together. In addition, you will have the chance to visit NEST – the modular research and innovation building of Empa and Eawag where new technologies, materials and systems are tested, researched and further developed under real conditions. Finally, alumni and current participants of the Innovation Booster Plastics for Zero Emission and the Innovation Booster Carbon Removal will share their experiences of participating in the program and developing radical ideas. In addition to exciting presentations from On, neustark, Swiss Textiles, carbonauten GmbH and others, you can also expect two keynotes from Bundesamt für Umwelt BAFU and Empa on Negative Emissions Technologies. We would also like to invite young, dynamic companies and entrepreneurs to apply for presentations in the start-up and idea pitching session on this topic. Get involved and make an active contribution to the success of this event. Let's make a difference together.
