He brings extensive experience in the implementation of applied research projects and in collaboration with industry partners.<br \/>\nThanks to his expertise in biogas and innovative energy systems and his strong network within the university, Prof. Goldbrunner will ensure the seamless continuation of the project. At the same time, he will contribute new perspectives and ideas that will shape the further development of BIOVARYA in the coming months.<\/p>\n<h3>BIOVARYA Moves Forward Stronger Than Ever<\/h3>\n<p>The handover marks an important milestone while ensuring that the project remains in excellent hands. With the strong foundation laid by Prof. Z\u00f6rner and the dynamic new direction under Prof. Goldbrunner, BIOVARYA is well-positioned to advance the exchange between Bavaria and Kenya, strengthen collaboration between research and industry, and actively promote sustainable energy development in the biogas sector.<br \/>\nThe entire BIOVARYA team sincerely thanks Prof. Z\u00f6rner for his dedication and looks forward to the next steps under Prof. Goldbrunner\u2019s leadership.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Change in Project Leadership: BIOVARYA Remains in Experienced Hands In the summer 2025, an important leadership change took place in the BIOVARYA project: Prof. Dr.-Ing.
