Background

About Patrick Wegele

Hey there! I'm currently rocking my role as an R&D Engineer at Voith Paper while also diving deep into research at KTH Stockholm. I thrive at the intersection of industry and academia, where I leverage cutting-edge tools like synchrotrons to tackle some of the biggest challenges in sustainable production. My passion lies in developing innovative solutions for more efficient paper production, specifically focusing on replacing fossil-based products with renewable cellulose materials. I love taking real-world problems from the industry, translating them into academic challenges, and applying the latest methods to create impactful solutions that drive business success. Curiosity is my superpower! I’m always eager to explore new ideas, but I keep my eyes on the prize: delivering industrial value. This unique blend of curiosity and practicality sets me apart from the crowd of researchers out there. Let’s connect and chat about innovation, research cooperations, or anything in between!
