AGEMERA Open Innovation Seminar (Tallinn, 6 May 2025)

Join us for the AGEMERA Open Innovation Seminar: "Exploring Tomorrow: Innovations in Mineral Tech and Beyond", where leading experts, technology developers, industry stakeholders, policymakers, and researchers will gather to discuss the future of mineral exploration, deep-tech innovation, and sustainable resource management. 

The event will take place on 6 May 2025, at TalTech Mektory (Tallinn, Estonia) and online, at 15:00-17:00 EET (14:00-16:00 CET). For those joining in-person, the event will be followed by networking and refreshments. 

The seminar will highlight the achievements of the AGEMERA Project, particularly its innovative, non-invasive mineral exploration and data visualisation technologies. These advances are reshaping how we discover and understand mineral resources, with a strong emphasis on environmental sustainability and operational efficiency.
