The Leibniz Association is making a strong commitment to the future of research and innovation with its 𝐋𝐞𝐢𝐛𝐧𝐢𝐳@𝐋𝐚𝐮𝐬𝐢𝐭𝐳 𝐩𝐫𝐨𝐣𝐞𝐜𝐭 and we are happy to be a part of it. A state-of-the-art office and laboratory building is set to rise in Cottbus, fostering interdisciplinary collaboration and addressing key societal challenges such as artificial intelligence, microelectronics, intelligent sensor systems, and technologies for digitalized medicine, agriculture, and Industry 4.0. The facility will provide space for 140 highly qualified professionals from institutions like IHP, Ferdinand-Braun-Institut, Leibniz-Institut für Höchstfrequenztechnik, and Leibniz Centre for Agricultural Landscape Research (ZALF), while also offering temporary spaces to other Leibniz research teams. It will be part of a larger research ecosystem, integrated into a dynamic campus alongside institutions from the Fraunhofer-Gesellschaft and the German Aerospace Center (DLR). Its proximity to Brandenburgische Technische Universität Cottbus-Senftenberg, the Lausitz Science Park, and the Medizinische Universität Lausitz - Carl Thiem will strengthen partnerships and support the next generation of scientific and technical talent. Construction is scheduled to begin in 2026, with completion and operational launch anticipated in 2029. The total investment in the project amounts to €39.4 million. Preparations are already underway, with a temporary facility on Nordstraße in Cottbus hosting research groups from IHP, FBH, and ZALF. This modernized space is laying the groundwork for the ambitious vision of Leibniz@Lausitz in the years to come.

Thank you to His Majesty, the Minister of Education and Research, Christina Egelund, the foundations, valued partners and distinguished guests, our outstanding alumni, talented colleagues, and inspiring students. Thank you for listening to our ideas and solutions at DTU - Technical University of Denmark and the transdisciplinary research in the Pioneer Center CAPeX on accelerating the discovery of new materials for #Power2X. By shortening the time from discovery to scalable materials and technological solution, we aim to play a key role in reaching the European Commission’s 2040 #climategoals of a 90% reduction in CO2 emissions by 2040. I am confidence that we can overcome this challenge, as we already have some of the brightest minds in our #TeamCAPeX, and we aim educate a further 100 new PhD and postdoctoral #Power2Xperts through our CAPeX Academy. I almost dare not to imagine what these minds can achieve together. Or maybe I can – collaborative research and scalable technological solutions that will help mankind to a greener future.
