The objective of the workshop is the outline of joined research topics for future activities and research cooperations between Brazilian and German scientist in
different research fields like »Marine Geosciences and Geotechnology«, »Geophysics and Geodesy«, and »Scientific Drilling«.
Renowned scientist and representatives from the industry are invited to discuss these topics, the possibilities for cooperation and the need for further joint research. During the workshop the integration of know - ledge on science and technology of both countries in the future will be aspired.
The workshop is scheduled as a platform to initiate cooperative research between Brazilian and German scientists and companies supplying technology and innovation in geoscientific fields for the future. Beside scientific talks and discussions a poster session and an exhibition will be organized. Exhibitors and sponsors are welcome to inform and display their technologies and products.
The proposed workshop will provide the platform to gather experts from both countries to discuss joint research projects including joint development of marine technologies. The results will be summarized in a »white paper«. Combining scientific researchers with representatives from the industry supplying marine technologies will have a direct and lasting impact on the near future of joint scientific research. The short- and long-term impact can only be sustained if the outlined research goals by the proposed workshop can be supported by solid financial tools (programs) in both countries.
To strengthen the discussion on future cooperation work between Brazil and Germany a second workshop is scheduled from March 27-30 in Heidelberg and at different German Marine Institutes for invited speakers.
