All participants in ProEnviro´s Result Presentation Day will meet at 1 p.m. at the AF-Borgen in Lund.

All project leaders will have 90 seconds to introduce their ProEnviro project and create a vivid impression, a so called memory track.  It could be that, for instance, project Hiprosol, which developed a new production process for thin-film solar cells, leaves a solar cell as a brilliant picture or memory track. of its uses in miniaturized solar panels.

Following this will be a more in-depth presentation, 10 minutes in length, for each project. This will be done in special stalls set up in two rooms. The participants will move from installation to installation.

"Later in the day there will be a special hunt for synergy. This is when the participants determine which special projects can be applied in their work, what contacts they can use and what inspires their interest," explains program director for ProEnviro Lars Frenning of Chalmers.

He first introduced this presentation model in 2007, when the Foundation for  Strategic Research (Stiftelsen för Strategisk Forsking), SSF´s,  research program ProViking  was finished. At that point, 18 projects were presented in a similar format. The specially invited guests to the Result Project Day, September 10th, come from businesses, organizations and universities.

"Next year ProEnviro will be concluded with a colossal event in Stockholm," Lars Frenning reveals.
