MaterialsEuroRoads is a forum for European keyplayers in the field of foresight and forecast of developments in materials technology. Please visit www.materialseuroroads.net to find out which institutions and stakeholders are involved in this network. MaterialsEuroRoads developed from the former Specific Support Action SMART (www.smart-ssa.net), which was a roadmapping project within the 6th Frameworkprogramme. The goal of MaterialsEuroRoads is to strengthen Europe´s position in materials technology and research by setting up a network between different European strategic materials actions and to enable a dialogue between keyplayers in foresight and funding agencies, ministries and private investors. The first meeting of the network took place on the 29th of March 2007 in Paris, France. Participants were welcomed by the French ministry of economy, finance and industry and the European Commision. At this first meeting different roadmapping activities were presented. Presentations were given by Prof. Weissenberger-Eibl, Prof. Alan Smith, Dr. Sisko Sipila, Dr. Derek Allen, Dr. Schumacher, Dr. Hoffknecht, Dr. Bouyer, Dr. Fandrich and Dr. Hedderich. The MaterialsEuroRoads Network is not a closed shop. However membership is limited to European keyplayers in the area of foresight/ forecast of materials innovations. If you are such a keyplayer and wish to actively participate in this network then send us your membership application which should consists of a CV and a short description of your recent and ongoing materials foresight activities (ptj-smart-ssa@fz-juelich.de).
