7 MAGNA participation in COMET Program lines COMET continues the success of the first generation of competence centre programmes in Austria - Kplus, K_ind / K_net, which were initiated in 1998 All three COMET programme lines (K1, K2, K-Projects) are thematically open with space for initiating new scientific and technological developments The COMET programme addresses existing competence centres and networks,as well as new consortia with participants from science and industry K2 Mobility - K2-Mobility SVT sustainable vehicle technologies, ST K2 ACCM - Austrian Center of Competence of Mechatronics, OÖ K2 XTribology - Excellence Center of Tribology, NÖ K1 BIOENERGY 2020+, ST K1 CEST - Centre of Excellence in Electrochemical Surface Technology & Materials, NÖ K1 KNOW - Know-Center Graz, ST K1 SCCH - Software Competence Center Hagenberg, OÖ K1 PCCL - Competence Center in Polymer Engineering and Science, ST KP JOIN4+ - Network of Excellence for Joining Technologies ST 7 7

8 Advantages of industry participation Pre-Conditions: Own technology strategy R&D ressources Fast transition of basic research into industrial application creates competitive advantage for industrial partners Combining multi-disciplinary R&D with an integrated engineering approach creates new opportunities Industry partners will be able to expand and secure their technological leadership through investigation and development of essential new technologies, which will be implemented in future automotive and drivetrain concepts Active involvement of international firms and researchers Long-term relationships and close co-operation with universities and research partners continuously building know-how and generating technical advance State-of-industry work environment for Post-Graduates and High Potentials provides attractive career opportunities for research staff to be used in science and industry 8 8
