The virtual meeting on 18 October 2022 served to promote scientific exchange between German universities of applied sciences and North American research institutions.

Topics such as the transformation of the energy sector, lifelong health care and social medicine, or innovative materials were addressed in several virtual breakout rooms. Researchers presented their projects or fields of expertise and explored opportunities for cooperation in joint discussions.
