Share your knowledge @ ICD Learning Day

Which solutions seem promising? And what innovations are our high-tech companies working on? Every year our brightest minds present their findings under the motto: share your knowledge @ ICD Learning Day.

No fewer than 110 employees from our 22 high-tech companies work in eight R&D project groups on solutions for the future. Our companies do this together, because the best ideas are simply realized best in collaboration.

Program

The program will take place entirely online this year due to the limitations of the COVID-19 crisis. In addition to a few plenary presentations, the participants can get to know the various projects and share their experiences and knowledge on the spot. This year's keynote speakers are Prof. dr.
