Due to the current restrictions (Covid 19), the event was hosted online, and we had nearly 70 attendees, including 40 guests from the industry.
We hope next year to meet the industrial partners and other guests in person and show them the new laboratories and equipment.
The slides presented at the event will soon be available to the WAAMmat members.
Don't hesitate to contact us if you want to learn more about the WAAMmat programme or if you are interested in becoming a member.
