The N-Tec Talks congress will take place parallel to the W3+ Fair Rheintal trade fair for optics, photonics, electronics and mechanics (www.w3-fair.com) on 23 and 24 September 2020 in Dornbirn, Germany. Prospects, opportunities and ideas for the high-tech industry after the corona crisis shape the focus of the event. More than 35 competent speakers from companies and research will give their assessments and recommendations. The presentations will focus on the areas of medical technology, production & quality assurance and the management topic, which lessons can be learned from the Corona crisis. The congress is included in the admission price of the trade fair.

Dr. Richard Quaderer from Rhysearch will speak about the possibilities the research institute offers in the fields of optical coating and precision manufacturing. Dr. Roland Goschke from Dioptic will demonstrate the advantages of systems for automatic scratch detection compared to manual visual inspection. The latest developments in continuously variable filters for applications in spectroscopy in hyperspectral systems and in fluorescence diagnostics will be highlighted by Dr. Oliver Pust from Delta Optical Thin Film. The complete lecture program is available online.

W3+ Fair covers optics, photonics, electronics and mechanics

"With the W3+ Fair and the N-Tec Talks integrated into it, we are creating an attractive platform for the four-country Rhine Valley region, which ranks among the top ten of Europe's 1,200 high-tech locations, to make a quick new start after the crisis," says Jörg Brück, Project Director of the event, confidently. "The optics, photonics, electronics and mechanics sectors are among the innovation drivers. At the W3+ Fair, product managers, developers and buyers have the opportunity to find out about the latest developments and benefit from the know-how of the experts present. The safety of all participants is our top priority at the event. It goes without saying that we will comply with all requirements".
