Agenda

The agenda of the workshop is split into a morning and an afternoon session. Each session will be opened by an invited speaker, followed by presentations from the partners of the Ceramic X.0 project. To enable outreach and networking, representatives from industry will present in short pitches their activities in the field of high precision ceramics. The booklet of the workshop, including the presentation slides, are published here.
