Appec Tech Forum Cryogenics and Vacuum – Academia meets Industry
November 24–26, 2025
From November 24 to 26, 2025, the international Appec Tech Forum Cryogenics and Vacuum – Academia meets Industry will take place in Maastricht (the Netherlands).

The forum brings together scientists and industry representatives to work on the latest developments in cryogenics and vacuum technology.
The event is co-organized by Maastricht University in collaboration with CERN.
- Knowledge sharing: immerse yourself in technical presentations and live demonstrations of cryogenics and vacuum solutions.
- Academia meets industry: meet international researchers, suppliers, and high-tech companies.
- Collaboration: discover opportunities to participate in projects that require groundbreaking technologies.
- Focus on Einstein Telescope: discuss how your expertise and technology can contribute to one of Europe's largest research facilities.
Relevance for the Einstein Telescope
Cryogenics and vacuum technology are key components for the operation of the Einstein Telescope. This forum addresses solutions and innovations that are essential for making the telescope's extremely sensitive measuring equipment operational. The interaction between science and industry makes this event particularly valuable for the further development of this large-scale research infrastructure.
