Connections across the battery world
How the meeting created space for the conversations that a programme cannot schedule.
A conference is more than a sequence of talks. The most useful moments often happen between sessions, when a student meets a senior researcher, a company finds a research group, or two teams discover that they are working on the same problem from different directions.
IMLB 2022 was built with those connections in mind. The exhibition, the poster gallery and the social programme created space for conversations that the formal programme could not schedule.
An international network
The ambassador programme helped the meeting reach researchers in different countries. The international scientific advisory committee brought a global perspective to the programme. The local organising committee connected the meeting to Australian universities, research organisations and industry.
Connections that last
The meeting was designed to leave something behind: new collaborations, new students, new ideas and a stronger sense of what the international battery community can do together.
