Successful start to the 2026 strategy meeting in Lößnitz
Strategic development is an important process that must be continuously pursued. Given the Chair's diverse range of tasks and the wide variety of competencies of the individual employees and project groups, it is therefore important to carry out this kind of orientation in a large group.
All members of the Chair came together on May 6, 2026 for the first part of this year's strategy meeting in order to determine the main areas of focus for research work in the coming years.
The event was held at the company EIDAM in Lößnitz, whose machine and presentation hall provided an ideal setting and thus enabled not only a change of topic but also a change of location.
Dr.-Ing. Max Britzke, together with Professor Thomas Herlitizus, led through the agenda and summarised the content and ideas which were developed together.
After a review and discussion on the classification of the larger research fields, the participants then worked in thematically structured working groups on the strategic direction of the research activities.
A final joint discussion allowed reflection on the topics developed before and thus concluded the start of this strategy process. Further meetings will now be held to finalize the content and fine-tune the research strategy.
A joint barbecue rounded off the day and offered the opportunity to discuss the day's findings again in a relaxed atmosphere.
We would like to thank Dr.-Ing. Max Britzke for moderating the event and EIDAM and its employees for hosting it!
