Important results from the project
Obtain deeper knowledge of ITER - achieved. Get an understanding of where our products can be used-partially achieved. Get ideas for future products from us partly achieved. Overall, a clear insight into how advanced the project is, but also the somewhat shameful picture of the very low actual European underlying interest (political direction).
Expected long term effects
Insight into how complicated it is that as a small company become a supplier to ITER and an insight that we must work with partners, perhaps as a third or fourth subcontractor. A few contacts in line with this were created.
Approach and implementation
The preparations included: - To identify the seminars that could provide overall knowledge of ITER, technically as well as organizationally. - From list of participants, identifying possible partners and purchasing organizations for ITER and related projects. At ITER could this is implemented, but the number of 1 + 1 meetings completed was considerably less than expected. Our potential products for use at ITER are very few in number but can mean large volumes. ITER and F4E are very complicated organizations so our role must be as a subcontractor´s subcontractor.
