F4E unterzeichnet eine Zusammenarbeitsvereinbarung mit Proxima Fusion – Fusion für Energie

From the article 

Fusion for Energy (F4E) has signed its first collaboration agreement with Proxima fusion, the German start-up, a spin-off from the Max Planck Institute for Plasma Physics, which has recently successfully raised an additional 130 million EUR in capital, exceeding 185 million EUR in funds. The collaborative framework results from an F4E Expression of Interest open to private fusion initiatives based in the EU-27. In line with F4E’s new vision, the aim of the scheme is to bring public and private initiatives closer to collaborate better, exchange expertise in areas of mutual interest and ultimately boost Europe’s fusion capabilities.

The agreement sets a framework of cooperation with no funding transferred between the two parties. It foresees exchanges of information and best practices, insight to key fusion technologies. The topics addressed will reflect the evolving needs and priorities of the parties through a dynamic and flexible work environment. Some of the topics to be addressed include the specificities of procuring first-of-a-kind components, civil engineering, AI, metrology, quality systems and various fusion technologies
