SALIENT and AMULET projects join forces to amplify European lightweight material uptake

2023
Written By JOSE F PAPI

Following the kick-off of several strategic alliances and partnerships, the AMULET and SALIENT Projects have signed a mutual collaboration agreement to establish a medium- and long-term strategy on successful cross-fertilisation and dissemination of results.

AMULET (Advanced Materials & Manufacturing Technologies United for Lightweight) enables small- and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) in the take-up and successful wide-spread application of lightweight materials and composites (e.g., polymer-based, ceramic mixes, light metal alloys). The main target of the project is to accelerate the actual market uptake by targeting a knowledge transfer from science directly to the backbone of European economies – SMEs. Four relevant sectors have been identified:

  • Automotive;

  • Aerospace and aeronautics;

  • Energy;

  • Building and construction.

AMULET and SALIENT will be working together closely to reach as many stakeholders of the automotive sector as possible, ranging from SMEs to multi-national manufacturers and covering the entire value chain. To achieve this, the projects will cooperate specifically on shared activities, namely training support - in form of webinars, workshops, Massive Open Online Courses (MOOCs) and more - and the joint attendance of events, conferences, fairs and exhibitions.

A detailed plan for the next quarter (Q2 2023) has already been established and will be implemented incrementally by both Project’s partners.

SALIENT is looking forward to a fruitful and inspiring cooperation!
