Learn even more about the highlights of the digital program:
In addition to live streams from the Aachen Eurogress, the digital platform offers the opportunity to interact with other digital participants and speakers via chat or open networking. Furthermore, you can interact with the program on site via the chat function and thus post questions live during the panel discussions. In addition to the streams, the digital platform offers you exclusive additional material. This way, you have all the information about the program points and more in-depth topics at your fingertips at all times.
Open Networking is designed for networking and exchange among digital participants. Depending on the needs of the participants, individual discussion rounds on various topics can be opened in Open Networking, which each person can join freely. For example, presented content can be deepened or further exciting topics can be discussed.
In small discussion rounds, participating companies and co-organizers of the AWK’23 will be given the opportunity to present a topic of their choice. As a digital participant, you will have the opportunity to indicate individual preferences regarding topics and companies when logging into the digital platform. Based on your personal selection, a matching with the speed-dating hosts of the companies will take place. In this way, the composition of the discussion rounds consists of people interested in the respective topic and thus leads to a constructive exchange and insights into sustainable production technology.
Guided, virtual thematic tours offer participants of the digital AWK’23 detailed 3D insights into the machine halls and laboratories and provide targeted information on the rich diversity of research and development topics of the two host institutes based on nine different production technology topics. All under the focus of sustainable production.
