Minister for Economic Affairs Harry Glawe presented the grant approval for the construction of a Centre for Life Science and Plasma Technology in Greifswald.
Today, Harry Glawe, Minister for Economic Affairs, Labour and Health, presented the grant notification for €16.45 million for the construction of a specialist centre for life sciences and plasma technology in Greifswald to Mayor Dr Stefan Fassbinder and Senator for Construction Jeannette von Busse. This will enable the Ministry of Economic Affairs to further expand Greifswald's position as a centre for business and science.
The new centre for life science and plasma technology will be built in the immediate vicinity of the university campus in the inner courtyard between the BioTechnikum and the Leibniz Institute for Plasma Science and Technology (INP). The aim is to provide a workplace for young companies in particular, but also for other firms.
Once completed, the INP Greifswald will have the opportunity to conduct research into the fundamentals of plasma technology and develop prototypes up to industrial scale.
Prof. Dr. Klaus-Dieter Weltmann, Chairman of the Board and Scientific Director of INP Greifswald, is delighted that "this project can be realised thanks to the generous support of the Health Industry Board of Mecklenburg-Western Pomerania (Strategy Group I Life Science)." The centre will create the conditions for expanding expertise in the field of plasma technology and initiating further projects. In addition, the focus will be on forming clusters and interdisciplinary collaborations and strengthening the links between industry and science.
