On the 1st of March, 2024 a delegation from our Department visited our educational, research and industrial partners based in Zala county.
We started the day at the ZalaZONE test-track and sciencepark. The goal of this visit was to explore cooperation possibilities, as well as think about our Department’s role and participation in the development and utilisation of the unique infrastructure and ecosystem of the test-track. To establish cooperation, we have presented our competencies and research activities.
After visiting ZalaZONE, we also stopped by at our industrial partners operating in the area. We have visited the production sites of Metál-Ker Ltd. and MouldTech Systems , where we took the opportunity to discuss their plans and potential cooperation areas, inlcuding R&D.
We ended the busy day by visiting the workshop of the Zalaegerszegi Duális Ágazati Képzőközpont (Dual vocational training center of Zalaegerszeg), where we also discussed the challanges of education and training in the field of mechanical engineering and manufacturing. We also discussed possible areas of cooperation.
We thank our hosts for the warm welcome and the constructive discussions! We trust that our collaborations will continue in the near future with successful joint projects, and we look forward to welcoming our recently visited partners at our Department soon!
