It was only through the GOT project that the idea could be brought forward! Thanks to the excellent support from the clusters and Frank Schmull, the Lebmeier engineering office has now, after more than 30 years, become a German GmbH (Dr.-Ing. Lebmeier GmbH;\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/www.lebmeier.de\/\">www.lebmeier.de<\/a>). And the topic of additively manufactured, optionally fiber-reinforced C\/SiC ceramics led together with Ingo Meinelt to another GmbH (Asterio Technology GmbH;\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/www.asteriotech.de\/\">www.asteriotech.de<\/a>).<\/p><p><strong>What are the advantages of participating in a project like GOT?<\/strong><\/p><p>For an SME, participating in an EU project on its own is a huge challenge. Only with the support of experienced clusters from the industry and the extensive assumption of administrative tasks is it possible for an SME to tackle such a task. The resulting new contacts and networks mean that we are still in contact with some of the participating companies from GOT, have already met at the SMM in Hamburg and have been able to expand our network again.<\/p><p><strong>What were the big takeaways from participating and integrating into the GOT ecosystem?<\/strong><\/p><p>Working in this innovative environment with so many small companies is an unbelievable pleasure and new ideas arise in every conversation which need to be investigated and will hopefully lead to new projects. However, this result would never have been possible without the umbrella of efficient clusters and companies that have always been on hand with help and advice. We will certainly look to participate in such projects again in the future.<\/p><p><strong>From start to finish, what was the biggest challenge and the greatest achievement?<\/strong><\/p><p>At the beginning of the project, it was a success to have reached the second round. And it was precisely this step-by-step approach that made none of the hurdles impossible for us. However, the requirements were always set so high that new things were created and progress was made at a rapid pace in an SME project. We realized that we could bring new ideas to the market with the right support, and at the same time we were able to adapt the company structure with expert support and found further new limited companies. Only with the financial support from GOT was it possible to register the corresponding IP rights to create a solid basis. In the end, reaching the final stage and successfully completing GOT is the greatest success for us in order to work successfully in this new network in the future.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-b6d2b6a elementor-widget-divider--view-line elementor-widget elementor-widget-divider\" data-id=\"b6d2b6a\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"divider.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-divider\">\n\t\t\t<span class=\"elementor-divider-separator\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/span>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-ff869cd elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"ff869cd\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-text-editor elementor-clearfix\">\n\t\t\t\t<p>You can find more information about the project on the <a href=\"https:\/\/greenoffshoretech.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">GOT homepage\u00a0<\/a>or on the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.linkedin.com\/company\/greenoffshoretech\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">LinkedIn channel.<\/a><\/p><p>Read more interviews with founders and managing directors of SMEs that were also supported by GOT here: <a href=\"https:\/\/greenoffshoretech.com\/interviews\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">https:\/\/greenoffshoretech.com\/interviews\/<\/a><\/p><p>These\u00a0interviews\u00a0are not intended to be exhaustive, but rather to gather\u00a0feedback\u00a0from some of the winners on the impact the funding has had on their business lives.<\/p><p>We\u2019re looking for cross-national responses, representing different nationalities, sectors of the blue economy and experiences, as well as all genders.<\/p><p><strong>Thanks to the GOT team for this interview!<\/strong><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>GreenOffshoreTech (GOT) is a cluster facilitated project with the purpose of supporting innovation in small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs), fostering development of the emerging Blue Economy industries by enabling new cross-sectorial and cross-border value chains based on shared challenges and the deployment of key enabling technologies (KET).
