Conferences and trade fairs

We regret to announce that, due to the risks associated with the ongoing global COVID-19 situation, it has been decided to postpone the 51st International Annual Conference of the Fraunhofer ICT to June 29th – July 2nd 2021. We apologize for any inconvenience caused by our postponement. But even more important than the personal, professional exchange of information is the need to ensure that the health of everyone and social cohesion are maintained these days.

The safety of all road users is a growing concern worldwide, while transportation faces a multitude of challenges but also opportunities such as new drive technologies or automated driving. Within this fast developing field, information is the key enabler of innovation and cutting-edge technology to maintain and improve road safety. The 15th AIRBAG 2000+ Symposium in 2020 will again be the meeting place for engineers, scientists, legislators, managers and marketing experts to exchange information, to make and improve contacts, to stimulate further progress and to promote integral safety for road users on an impartial platform.

... with a different emphasis each year, cover scientific and technological progress in the entire field of energetic materials and the related disciplines. Held annually for over 50 years, the conferences have gained worldwide importance, with hundreds of participants from more than 30 nations each year. The conferences are held in Karlsruhe’s Convention Center, one hour south of Frankfurt International Airport.
