After the success of the two first editions, JEC World organises the third edition of Startup Booster, the leading start-up competition in composites, where ten start-ups will present their innovation in front of a jury of experts.
JEC Group launched Startup Booster programme in 2017 to get closer to the start-up world, to attract the new generation of composites entrepreneurs and put them at the forefront of the industry. The programme gives the floor to 10 start-ups, each of them having five minutes to present their innovation, on 12 March 2019, in front of a jury of experts from the composites industry.
These 10 start-ups will be also showcasing within the Startup Booster Village, during the three days, and will benefit from a dedicated programme, including workshops with Startup Booster Main Innovation Partners Airbus and Daimler, and Innovation Partner Altair.
“Daimler being one of the main Innovation Partner of the Startup Booster, we are looking for innovations, in particular sustainable technologies and processes,” said Dr Karl-Heinz Fueller, responsible for material innovations and BIW concept development, Daimler.
“As a main Innovation Partner of the Startup Booster competition we get fantastic direct engagement with the innovators who are defining solutions for the future,” said Jelle Bloemhof, Head of Manufacturing Technologies of Composite at Airbus.
Members of the 2019 jury include: Jelle Bloemhof, Head of Manufacturing Technologies of Composite, Airbus; Karl-Heinz Fueller, Responsible for material innovations and BIW concept development, Daimler; Jeffrey Wollschlager, Senior Director - Composites Technology, Altair Engineering; Renaud Poulard, Partner, Omnes Capital; and Raphael Surun, Head of Composites Department, Beneteau Group.
