Updates
Projects are being successfully completed and new ones launched. Our employees are also on the road a lot and can be found at our own events or at conferences and trade fairs.
We also regularly welcome delegations from business, science and politics. Sometimes even a chancellor or king drops by.
We publish exciting research results on a regular basis and are sometimes delighted to receive awards.
This is the right place if you want to immerse yourself in life at the ZBT.
