CERN Knowledge Exchange Workshop

Science and Technology Facilities Council

<H2 CLASS="MsoNormal">Accelerate your business idea with CERN</H2>
Explore first-hand how CERN technologies and know-how ­can help you create new business opportunities, overcome barriers to technical development and accelerate business growth.
CERN is a world-leading centre of physics and engineering excellence that develops and operates some of the world’s largest and most complex scientific instruments. CERN has contributed to industrial and societal applications in many sectors including the World Wide Web, invented at CERN nearly 30 years ago. The range of revolutionary technology enables innovation in areas as diverse as:
<UL>
<LI>
Medical applications for preventive, diagnostic and therapeutic purposes
</LI>
<LI>
Industry 4.0, including digital manufacturing, robotics, industrial IoT and control systems integration
</LI>
<LI>
Computing applications to support big data collection, management and analytics
</LI>
</UL>
The CERN Knowledge Exchange workshop will provide a unique and interactive platform to discuss your ideas directly with CERN experts, as well as to learn more about opportunities for collaboration with the Science and Technology Facilities Council (STFC) and CERN, through the <A HREF="http://www.cernbic.stfc.ac.uk" TARGET="_blank" DATA-MSYS-CLICKTRACK="0" REL="nofollow noopener noreferrer">STFC CERN Business Incubation Centre (BIC)</A>, based in the UK. The STFC CERN BIC is dedicated to accelerating innovative business concepts through the commercialisation of CERN technologies.

This workshop and the roundtable discussions will focus on two industry sectors linked to CERN’s technical strengths:
<UL>
<LI>
Digital Manufacturing (Industry 4.0) 
There is an increasing trend of automation and efficiency in manufacturing processes with connected sensors and machines, autonomous robots and big data technology. CERN’s own facilities call for this technology and can now be applied to your business.
</LI>
<LI>
Medical applications 
CERN has expertise in technologies that contribute to advances in medical applications related to preventive, diagnostic and therapeutic purposes. CERN seeks innovative applications of its technologies in the broader healthcare domain. It has already contributed to the development of medical imaging, radiotherapy or digital health technologies for simulation and modelling.
