One last hurrah!
It’s not quite that dramatic, but our BMFTR “quantum aktiv” funding program is slowly coming to an end, so nearly all the projects (only one partner was missing) got together one last time to celebrate three years of project and networking work.
The venue this time was phaeno in Wolfsburg. And so we couldn’t resist booking a factory tour at VW right away. Unfortunately, we weren’t allowed to take photos during the tour, but it was truly impressive. Our tour guide was kind enough to take some photos of the group at one spot, though. After all, we didn’t even have to walk here. We were pulled through the halls in stylish group wagons. What a way to kick off the event.
Afterward, we held our final networking meeting at phaeno. Over light snacks, our partners had the chance to exchange ideas before each person concluded by presenting the results of their projects.
The program continued in the evening. At the Wolfsburg Planetarium, we were able to sit back and enjoy the most beautiful images and stories about space and the solar system during a private showing. Afterward, we wrapped up the eventful day with dinner together.
The second day was entirely focused on our specialty: outreach. At phaeno, we had the opportunity to present our projects to the public and offer workshops for school classes. After many interesting conversations and great networking opportunities, we headed back home.
Some projects have already come to an end, while others will conclude in the coming weeks and months. We’re looking forward to the final stretch and will continue to report on the projects’ activities.
