IVAM Hightech Summit 2022

Solutions for Sustainabilty
May 4 - 5, 2022
Dortmund, Germany

Dortmunder U, Ritterstraße 18, 44137 Dortmund, Germany

Since 2017, the IVAM Hightech Summit has been a central point in the year where companies from micro and nanotechnology come together and present the latest developments and products as well as discuss the challenges in the future. Probably the greatest challenges at present, but also in the future, are, for example, coping with climate change and the shortage of raw materials and the resulting necessary adaptation of our way of working and living. Microtechnology is a key player in developing solutions to these global problems. That's why the theme of this year's Hightech Summit is sustainability. You can expect exciting keynote presentations and many new products and technologies. Book your participation now for May 05, 2022! Get your ticket here!

This year, the Hightech Summit will be held as a face-to-face event. Our venue is the Dortmunder U. Formerly the basement high-rise of the Dortmunder Union Brewery and production site for beer, the building was put to a new use as a center for art and creativity in 2010 after 82 years of its existence. It was handed over to the public as part of the European Capital of Culture RUHR.2010 and is thus also a symbol of sustainable use of formerly industrial buildings.

On the eve of the Hightech Summit, May 04, 2022, we also cordially invite you to a get-together starting at 6:00 p.m. (CEST), also in the Dortmunder U. Food and drinks will be provided. When booking your ticket, please make sure to include the get-together if you want to attend. Thank you very much!

The conference language is English.
