The SLAS Europe Conference and Exhibition took place in Hamburg for the first time – and Fraunhofer ITMP was there with a diverse program. Dr. Philip Gribbon, site manager of Fraunhofer ITMP Hamburg, opened the conference in his capacity as SLAS president. With presentations, poster sessions, a technology showcase in its own laboratory, and a panel discussion, Fraunhofer ITMP played a key role in shaping the event. Hamburg proved itself to be a strong science location – SLAS will return to the Hanseatic city in 2027.
