Innovation - Giant drones, multirotor wind turbines and bladerobots made by Vestas – how?

Get a glimpse of the life in a corporate innovation department

 Presented by

Allan K. Poulsen, Head of Materials and Sustainable Scaling, Vestas

Vestas have demonstrated several concepts during recent years, for instance, the multirotor wind turbine, robots for leading edge repair, and at the moment, Vestas tests a new cable-stayed rotor on the Høvsøre test site.

These concepts were all born in the Vestas innovation department - most likely when a person in the middle of a lively dialogue suddenly started a sentence with “What if…?”. The life in a corporate innovation department has its upsides and downsides. Here Allan K. Poulsen will present how the Vestas Innovation department works with innovation and provide you with a rare glimpse on how some of Vestas’ concepts were born.  

The lecture will be held on Tuesday 6. May 2025 17:00 at Aalborg Universitet, Esbjerg, Niels Bohrs Vej 8, 6700 Esbjerg.
