Industry 4.0 and Lab 4.0 at ILMAC Lausanne, 7. October 2020

Welcome to the 2020 edition of ILMAC Lausanne! The fair, initially founded by the Swiss Chemical Society in 1956 in Basel, moved to Lausanne as complementing location in the western part of Switzerland in 2017. ILMAC Lausanne is organized for the third time and has established itself as an important event that provides knowledge exchange platforms for the whole laboratory and process chemistry community. 

ILMAC Lausanne 2020
Beaulieu Exhibition Center, October 7-8, 2020
Opening hours: 09.00-17.00h

Symposia and Workshops

The Swiss Chemical Society in collaboration with SusChem Switzerland organizes two symposia and two workshops on Wednesday, October 7:

  • Symposium: Industry 4.0 - Trends & Best Practice, 10.00-12.30h
  • Symposium: Lab 4.0 - Trends, Visions & Challenges, 14.00-16.30h
  • Workshop: Focus Topics Green & Sustainable Chemistry 2021-2023, 14.00-16.30h
  • Workshop: Flow Chemistry, 14.00-16.30h

The Integrated Scientific Services AG (ISS) in collaboration with Swiss Biotech Association, BioAlps and the Canton of Vaud organizes a one-day Medtech symposium on Thursday, October 8: 

  • Medtech Forum: «CE-Marking of Medical Devices: Navigating the new Regulatory Framework»
    Forum in order to bring information to Medtech companies who are not all well prepared to face the numerous challenges for obtaining a CE-mark, specifically within the new EU MDR.)

Exhibition

Laboratory technology and process technology are being presented together instead of in separate sections: at ILMAC Lausanne, our exhibitors can showcase their competences and solutions as an overall package. This will ensure greater attention from the growing number of professional visitors who plan and implement their company processes holistically rather than individually.

ILMAC is the meeting place for suppliers and manufacturers of:

  • laboratory equipment; installations, implements, consumables
  • analytical technology; analytical devices and processes
  • semi-finished products, laboratory chemicals
  • information technology
  • design and implementation, engineering, management
  • plant: process engineering devices and systems
  • process and environmental technology
  • pharmaceutical packaging: primary and secondary packaging systems
  • quality control and validation
  • environmentally compatible disposal

Information Video "Roadmap for chemistry research infrastructures"

Objectives and Mandate

The Swiss Roadmap for Research Infrastructures is a planning instrument for research infrastructures updated every four years. The State Secretariate for Education, Research and Innovation (SERI) would like to strengthen the the view of the research community throughout the process leading to the Swiss roadmap.

Therefore, SERI gave a mandate to the Swiss Academy of Sciences (SCNAT) to produce discipline specific roadmaps by March 2021. These disciplinary roadmaps will provide insights for decision-making on the allocation of university and federal funding for costly research infrastructures over the period 2025–2028.

Process Leading to the Chemistry Roadmap

Representatives from all Swiss universities, institutions of the ETH domain, and universities of applied sciences were invited to join the Chemistry Round Table.

Proposals for research infrastructures (RI) were collected and further elaborated in dedicated working groups. The criteria for the selection were:

  • RI that will be open to the entire research community in Switzerland
  • Large RI that are not affordable to a single department/university

 

We Need Your Feedback!
