AIMday Big Science Technology presented at MAX IV’s All Staff Meeting

This week, Big Science Sweden and BigScience.dk were at MAX IV, part of Lund University, to present the upcoming event AIMday Big Science Technology, taking place on 30 September at The Loop in Lund.

MAX IV’s All Staff Meeting

A Swedish–Danish delegation consisting of Henrik Bak Jeppesen and Katrine Hjort from BigScience.dk, together with Amelie Hallin, Joakim Sandberg, and Frida Tibblin Citron from Big Science Sweden, took part in MAX IV’s All Staff Meeting.

The team had the opportunity to introduce the concept of AIMday Big Science Technology – an event where Big Science facilities, research infrastructures, scientists, and high-tech companies come together to tackle real-world challenges.

The idea is simple: Big Science facilities, such as MAX IV, submit real challenges that are then explored in focused workshops. Once the challenges are published on the AIMday platform, participants from academia and industry can register for the discussions most relevant to their expertise.

For the first time, this will be a joint Danish–Swedish AIMday, and this year’s special focus is on Green Tech Solutions.

“We received a very positive response and hope to see some great challenges submitted from the research community at MAX IV,” says Frida Tibblin Citron at Big Science Sweden. “Thank you for having us at your All Staff meeting – it was a pleasure to be there!”

Quick show of hands at MAX IV – how many think they can come up with a challenge?

At AIMday, Big Science facilities submit their challenges. Once the challenges are published on the AIMday webpage, registration opens for industry and academia.

On the day, expert teams explore the challenges in focused workshops. Choose the topics that match your expertise, and take an active part in the discussions! Your expertise is needed!
