University seat
Beyond collaborations to be established/continued with companies linked to metallurgy, it seems important to me that the promotion of the work also has a more marked basis on the "academic" level, if only to have in the long term recent evidence validated by peers.
Quickly, I see three areas to prioritize:
- academic: Fine Arts,
- academic: Sciences and Technology,
- major schools: Engineering,
A new project to discuss therefore, and probably over a (very) long time because if we subscribe to it it could make small...
- Do we have contacts who might be interested?
- What work could be proposed/supported? One in particular?
Risks identified a priori:
- workload over the entire financial year,
- personal skills to ensure good follow-up,
- complex initiation phase (selection, plan, contacts, etc.).
In short... I submit the idea, to mature most probably.
