We invite you to a one-day presentation meeting
Centre for Advanced Laser Techniques (CALT)
that will be held at the
Institute of Physics in Zagreb
Mladen Paić Hall
on Tuesday June 18th 2013 starting at 10h.
The event will bring together representatives of the academic and scientific community in Croatia, representatives of the business sector, and representatives of the state and public institutions, with the aim of presenting the CALT initiative.
Institute of Physics (IFZg) is the leading scientific institution in Croatia in the field of laser-based research. Lasers, and photonics in general, were recognized by the EU as the key technologies not only in scientific and technological innovation, but also in the socio-economic context. Given the importance of the application of lasers in various fields of science and technology in modern society, IFZg submitted a project to establish the Centre for Advanced Laser Techniques (CALT) to the public calls for projects that will be funded by the European Union (2014-2020) announced by the Ministry of Science, Education and Sports of the Republic of Croatia. The project is included in the indicative list of projects in the field of scientific research infrastructure whose implementation will be financed through the European Regional Development Fund (ERDF) under the Operational Programme Regional Competitiveness 2014-2020.
Firmly based on the existing professional expertise of researchers, and in part on the already existing scientific infrastructure in the field of light-matter interaction at IFZg, CALT will provide new breakthroughs in the scientific research. The center has great potential for innovation, development of new technologies and applications. The synergic effect of the project is particularly promising where the use of new laser infrastructure can bring together colleagues from different areas of research from the broader scientific and technological community in Croatia.
