Second IndustryQCC Forum

Last Thursday, the IQCC organized the second edition of the IndustryQCC Forum with five national and international companies (Johnson & Johnson Innovation, NBD Nostrum Biodiscovery, Institute of Agrifood Research and Technology, Huntsman and Software for Chemistry & Materials) during the Science Week.
The IndustryQCC Forums provide young (and more advanced) researchers of IQCC the opportunity to get to know the research carried out in (bio)chemical industry in different parts of the world; vice versa, for the companies the meetings provide an opportunity to learn about the research of the IQCC, and meet highly qualified researchers with the potential of becoming future employees. This networking activity encourages creating new connections between IQCC/IQCC-researchers and industry in a relaxed and informal manner. This meeting is organized every year since 2020 during the Science Week.
Some companies have shown interest in hosting Master’s students for their Master research project and joint research projects have been considered. The event was attended by researchers, postdocs, doctoral students and Master’s students from the UdG who were able to speak directly with companies. This facilitated the attraction to the outside world of industry and, at the same time, increases the links between the IQCC and companies to bring research closer to society.
