Veranstaltungen 2023

Dear alumni, dear friends,

Street art has become so popular that millions are paid at art auctions for works by artists like Banksy. Shepard Fairey, who designed the "Hope" campaign poster for former US President Barack Obama, has also achieved worldwide fame. Street art is social criticism and contemporary art that has made it into our everyday lives. It has broken down boundaries and established itself in the exclusive art world.

That is why we cordially invite you to start the year 2023 with an exclusive guided tour of the exhibition "Wonderwalls", which is dedicated to street art in all its facets, at NRW Forum Düsseldorf on 21 January 2023. More than 2,000 works of photography, graphic design as well as graffiti, sculptures, and designer toys merge in a spectacular staging.

We will meet at the Foyer in the NRW Forum, Ehrenhof 2, 40779 Düsseldorf, at 11.15 am, 15 min ahead of the tour to allow time for cloakroom and distribution of entrance tickets, so that we can start the tour on time.

Optionally: Afterwards, we would like to have lunch together in the old town of Düsseldorf to network and discuss our impressions of the exhibition.

Tip: If you would like to spend the entire day in Düsseldorf, you can stroll on your own along Königsallee after lunch. The famous boulevard is only a 10-minute walk from the old town.

Please register by Thursday, 19 January by completing the online registration form. We encourage you to sign-up early, as we allocate places on a first-come, first-served basis.

The guided tour is free of charge for members of the German Friends of LSE. The participation fee for non-members is €10, which we ask you to either pay by Paypal or provide us a SEPA direct debit mandate.

Please contact us if you have any questions. We are looking forward to seeing you at this event.

Kind regards,

Nadine Sieren
Manuel Geggus, Vice President

The MIT Club of Germany kicked-off its Smart Circular Cities activities with a big, in-person event in October 2022 together with our partner BMW, TUM (Technical University Munich) and Circular Munich. The event was the starting point for our Smart Circular Cities Start-Up Mentorship Program, where we bring the global MIT Network to the start-ups that were selected for this program. Besides having 2 dedicated mentors each, the MIT Club of Germany is looking for opportunities to expose the start-up to the global MIT alumni network.
 
In this context we have put together the following event together with the MIT Alumni Energy, Environment and Sustainability Network to allow interested MIT alumni and partners of the MIT Club of Germany to understand how start-ups contribute to the transition to a circular economy. The participant may even find the presenting start-ups interesting enough to engage with them directly after the event. The MIT Club of Germany is happy to make a connection.

The Start-Ups are:
 
DKSR
The Data Competence Center Cities and Regions (DKSR) supports municipalities and municipal enterprises to meet current challenges with the help of data-based solutions. With our open-source data platform, data-based solutions are easily deployed across cities and regions. With our consulting, we bring the expertise for the strategic use of urban data to municipalities. With the joint implementation of solutions in the Urban Data Community, we create inter-municipal synergy effects.
 
FixFirst
FixFirst is a GreenTech startup that aims to end the throw-away world by connecting service providers for maintenance, repair & refurbishment of electronics & more with brands like manufacturers, retailers, cities & insurances on their SaaS-enabled B2B platform that helps them launch, scale, innovate & improve their circular services operations & match materials for reuse - THE Operating System for Circular Services & Products.
 
tozero
We recycle lithium-ion batteries for the EV Industry and recover the critical materials, like lithium, nickel, cobalt andgraphite. This will allow us to take old batteries and reintroduce fresh raw materials locally back into the supply chain. Therefore, end-of-life batteries will no longer be toxic waste, but a valuable resource for a sustainable future.
 
Trilleco
The Trilleco software platform helps companies to comply with EU regulations and achieve their CO2 targets. The IoT platform combines all data and assets from the enterprise environment in a three-dimensional representation and visualizes the data through dashboards. In this way, data transparency can be achieved and GHG Scope 1, 2, 3 can be used for ESG reporting. As the next step, processes can be optimized by solutions to specifically reduce CO2 emissions.
