Opportunities for Industrial Collaboration in the framework of the FCC Feasibility Study
As part of the FCC Feasibility Study, there are numerous opportunities for industry to contribute expertise and innovation across various technical domains. Industrial collaboration will be crucial in addressing the technological challenges and advancing the design of key systems.
The following is a non-exhaustive list of areas where industrial participation is expected to play a significant role. This list provides an initial framework for engagement, but it may evolve as the project concludes its feasibility report and moves to its next phase. We encourage Industrial Liaison Officers (ILOs) to review these areas and identify potential contributions from industry partners along with research centres and universities.
A non-exhaustive list of areas for collaboration:
-
Superconducting Radio Frequency systems
-
Magnets
-
Vacuum systems
-
Power converters
-
