Technology development is complex and time-consuming. It requires many years of sustained research, interdisciplinary skills and specialised infrastructure, something that no research institution can afford by itself. SATW’s Advanced Manufacturing priority programme brings together researchers from the whole of Switzerland – particularly young researchers – in a network. Thus, SATW is promoting cooperation in the development of future manufacturing processes.
SATW facilitates the frequent exchange between researchers in the field of advanced manufacturing all over Switzerland. The working groups maintained by SATW foster communities of trust which results in more collaboration and a more efficient knowledge transfer across research groups of different Swiss research institutions.

Through its activities and platforms, SATW gives science and industry in Switzerland an opportunity to engage in dialogue and learn from each other, launch new cooperative ventures and, as a result, shape our future together. We have been using this opportunity within the Advanced Manufacturing Research Alliance for many years and are very grateful for it.
