Programme

We look forward to welcoming you to our first virtual Lightweight Future Day on Thursday, May 6th, 2021. We are presenting the future of lightweight to you - ranging from thermoplastic composites to composites in Motorsports and towards E-mobility applications.

Firstly, we will experience a journey into the extraordinary world of Dakar Rally by Matthias Rawa & Jakob Krispler, Project Managers & Lead Engineers at KTM. In the afternoon Rene Adam, Director Research and Technology at FACC, will give us an exciting insight into civil urban air mobility developments.

You can look forward to many interesting impressions!
