The section Industry Engagement has elected its Industry Advisory Board.
Last month, a further step was taken towards the overarching design of cooperation between industry and the NFDI: the Industry Engagement section elected its industrial advisory board. The current twelve business representatives come from the IT & Electronics, Manufacturing & Industry and Media sectors, as well as from the Federation of German Industries (BDI). In an open and trusting exchange, solutions for common challenges in data exchange are to be found and new forms of cooperation developed.
The section’s first white paper offers a comprehensive examination of existing cooperation models between industry and science. The paper is available on the NFDI Zenodo Community at: https://doi.org/10.5281/zenodo.10473579
