  HIGHLIGHTS
Industry-academia workshop at the Nordic Rheology Conference & DRG Symposium 2025
The Nordic Rheology Conference & DRG Symposium 2025 will take place in Berlin on June 10-12, 2025. It will feature an industry-academia workshop that aims to:
👉 Create a stronger connection between academia and industry
👉 Enhance dialogue between academic and industrial researchers at NRS and DRG events
👉 Help to identify industrially relevant research questions that academic researchers may address and work on

The workshop is planned to include small-group discussions between academic and industrial researchers to brainstorm ideas on defined questions/challenges, as well as a collective discussion to gather practical ideas for increased academia-industry collaboration in the future.

The industry workshop will be organized in one of the parallel sessions during the conference, and it is open to all conference participants. No separate registration is needed.

If you have questions or specific wishes related to the industry workshop, please do not hesitate to contact the workshop organizers Gustaf Mårtensson, Dragana Arlov, Florian Nettesheim and Olli-Ville Laukkanen.
