The keynote address presented by Professor Hans-Jürgen Papier, our most prominent speaker, will of course be a highlight of the event. Professor Papier’s speech will complete the strategic contributions of this conference day, widening our horizons about an issue that is vitally important to our industry: energy policy.

However, this will not be the last highlight this day has to offer: The top-class lectures will be followed by a reception celebrating the 60th anniversary of PTS in the BMW Museum, which we have booked exclusively for our guests. Join us in the exhibition of the famous Bavarian car manufacturer to have a light meal and raise our glasses to 60 years of PTS.
