Project leaders and innovators from the Swedish mining cluster gathered to showcase their projects – all funded by Vinnova through Swedish Mining Innovation’s calls. We had 27 presentations including both all ongoing and as well some recently completed projects. They were presented in the five categories:
Mining
Recycling and byproducts
Environment
Processing
Other diverse projects
-The project leaders did a fantastic job to describe their results. It was great to see the breadth and depth of topics in the program, as well representation across the triple helix: research, industry, and public sector. The networking time was extremely popular and time very well spent. Strengthening our networks will help to set the stage moving into the next program: Swedish Metals and Minerals, says Lawrence Hooey, Technology and Innovation Manager, Swedish Mining Innovation.
– Many of the projects we’re seeing today, such as battery and critical metals recycling, weren’t even on the radar when the program began. Now, we’re funding a wider range of circular solutions to meet the pressing demands of society’s transition.
Charlotte Andersson, Program Director, Swedish Mining Innovation.
Next year we will have the final Program Day where we will plan something special to showcase our successes – stay tuned!
