The innovation topic of lightweight technology has long since reached the federal government, which has increasingly embraced it. Because of the federal government’s lightweight technology initiative, we now see an opportunity for greater visibility of lightweight technology activities in Baden-Württemberg, both at a national and European level. This shifts the priorities in the federal state’s support with regard to lightweight technology. The original mission to increase lightweight technology’s visibility beyond the state border has been fulfilled. Thanks to Leichtbau BW, Baden-Württemberg is strongly positioned in the field of lightweight technology – both in research and in business.
Innovation dynamics are created from a willingness to adapt and change. Against the backdrop of current developments – particularly at the federal level – the federal state government has decided to realign its support for lightweight technology as an innovation topic. In light of the above, the federal state government has decided to end Leichtbau BW’s operational activities on 31 December 2022, after which it will transfer the promotion of lightweight technology in the federal state to a new format. Considering the steadilyincreasing innovative pressure when it comes to resource and energy-efficient technologies, the innovation topic of lightweight technology will remain a high priority in BadenWürttemberg.
