LIGHTer Academy phase 4
Research Project, 2023 – 2025

Purpose and goal: LIGHTer Acdemy is a network within SIP LIGHTer that aims to bring together industry, institute and academy researchers with complementary skills. Through various efforts, we try to coordinate, inspire and benefit from each other in order to achieve greater technological leaps in the Lightweight area. The goal is a sustainable research network as a complement to LIGHTer´s other activities and as a basis for achieving the goals in the Lightweight Agenda. Expected results and effects: LIGHTer Academy strives to build new knowledge in the lightweight area. We carry out preliminary studies in collaboration between industry, institutes and academia. We then seek project funds to deepen the work in areas that show great potential and we publish the work in open technical journals to ensure that the development is made available to the whole of lightweight Sweden. Our effectiveness is measured in the number of publications and new projects. We see that cooperation between academia and industry is a key to efficient competence transfer.
