Düs­sel­dorf, 09.10.2021

On Octo­ber 09, 2021, Mr. Owen Chen, tech­no­logy dir­ect­or of Weiqiao’s R&D depart­ment, high­lighted the chal­lenges China is cur­rently facing with the so-called “car­bon peak” at the Glob­al Light­weight Sum­mit, as China is expect­ing CO2 emis­sions to peak by 2030. Fur­ther­more, he intro­duced China’s light­weight devel­op­ment in the con­text of car­bon neut­ral­ity and offered a glimpse into Weiqiao’s rap­idly devel­op­ing light­weight sec­tor, which is on its way to becom­ing the strongest domest­ic auto­mot­ive light­weight sys­tem solu­tion pro­vider by 2025.

The Tech­no­lo­gi­etag Leicht­bau, organ­ized by Leicht­bau BW GmbH, is an annu­al event that is con­sidered one of the most import­ant cross-industry plat­forms for the light­weight solu­tion com­munity. In addi­tion to the numer­ous oppor­tun­it­ies to expand one’s pro­fes­sion­al net­work, Tech­no­lo­gi­etag Leicht­bau focuses on the latest tech­no­lo­gic­al devel­op­ments. The Tech­no­lo­gi­etag Leicht­bau 2021 was held for the first time as an inter­na­tion­al Glob­al Light­weight Sum­mit with key­notes, present­a­tions and dis­cus­sions by light­weight experts from China, Europe and Canada.
