🎥 ¡Aquí les mostramos un vistazo a todo lo que ha estado ocurriendo hasta ahora en #FITEA2025, el Forum de Innovación, Talento y Educación Aeroespacial 2025 en el Instituto IMDEA Materiales!
🌍 Fue inspirador ver cómo la próxima generación de ingenieros y científicos afronta el desafío de crear tecnologías, ideas y colaboraciones que no solo imaginan un futuro posible en el Planeta Rojo, sino que también aportan un impacto tangible en nuestro propio planeta.
Ayer, los cuatro países finalistas: Puerto Rico 🇵🇷, Costa Rica 🇨🇷, Portugal 🇵🇹 y España 🇵🇹, presentaron las propuestas que han estado desarrollando a lo largo del año.
🚀 Uno de los aspectos más emocionantes de #FITEA2025 es su colaboración con la final del Mars Challenge.

El #RetoMarte es una iniciativa que invita a estudiantes de Iberoamérica a desarrollar soluciones innovadoras para la vida en Marte y la sostenibilidad en la Tierra.
🔍 Great insights from our AID4GREENEST research partners at the University of Oulu.

This video, featuring researcher Rishabh Bharadwaj, offers a look at how experimental characterisation supports the development of accurate modelling tools within #AID4GREENEST.

👋 We are delighted to welcome Dr. Julia Lyubina, Head of Global New Business Development at @evonik.bsky.social Creavis and Prof. at @tuda.bsky.social to our Industrial Advisory Board!

Dr. Lyubina brings lengthy experience at the intersection of materials innovation and industrial application.
Beyond its capability to create intricate geometries, #LPBF additive manufacturing is a powerful tool to tailor the microstructure of metallic materials.

Last Friday, we were pleased to welcome a guest seminar from Dr. Christos Sofras from @empa-materials.bsky.social on this fascinating topic.
It is the third consecutive year that IMDEA Materials maintains a direct link with the honour, following Profs. Javier LLorca (2023) and Eugenio Oñate (2024).

👏 Congratulations, Prof. Ginebra. Thank you for inspiring the next generation of researchers!
