PULSATE Support Program for Technology Transfer Experiments will start in January 2023 and last for 13 months.
Through the program, the Experiments will receive:
As part of the drive to promote jobs and growth in the European photonics industry, PULSATE was set up in 2020 with a grant of €7.9 million under the EU's Horizon 2020 program as a four-year project to promote and facilitate the adoption of LBAAM technologies. Details about PULSATE can be found on their Website and Community.
Laser-based advanced and additive manufacturing technologies play an important role in furthering digital production and offer important advantages to the companies that adopt them. However, barriers such as high investment costs, complex technology, and system integration, and lack of awareness hinder their adoption by SMEs. PULSATE aims to mitigate these barriers by creating a Europe-wide network to enable and encourage SMEs to participate in LBAAM innovation and become more globally competitive.
PULSATE has received funding from the European Union's Horizon 2020 research and innovation program under Grant Agreements No 951998. It is an initiative of the Photonics Public Private Partnership.
