Exchange of experiences

Problems are rarely unique. Someone has usually solved them before. In exchange of experiences and special interest groups, you will build up helpful practical knowledge.

How do others solve the same problems?

Our exchange of experiences (ERFA) and platforms are cross-industry hubs on various topics.

They offer a subject-specific discussion forum and exchange with external experts and company representatives.

Process & organization

The participants define the topics together and meet regularly and bindingly with changing host roles.

In addition to organising and coordinating the appointments, the Cleantech Cluster acts as a neutral player and moderates and documents the individual meetings.

Current exchange of experiences

ERFA Law, Safety and Environment

With one foot in crime? There are more and more regulations on the environmental and safety aspects of production. How do we achieve efficient implementation in reality and what potential is still untapped? This ERFA provides you with answers. They learn from experts, share experiences and have focused discussions with like-minded people — in an exclusive round.

ERFA CSRD

Sustainability reporting will be mandatory for large companies in the future due to European requirements. The new era of reporting began with fiscal year 2024. Companies should build up their own competencies and not outsource everything. Since there is a lack of specialist staff and expertise, we focus on the exchange between companies on equal terms and specifically draw on external expertise. This is how we work on the topics together.

ERFA circular economy — free

Circular economy can save resources, strengthen customer relationships or reduce environmental impact. It is the solution to a wide range of today's challenges. For many companies, the question is: Yes, but how? That is exactly what this series of events is about. We offer expert input and discuss together how the challenges of sustainable transformation can be overcome.

The series of events is financed by the EU-Interreg project CIRCOTRONIC and is therefore free of charge for you.
