2 Technological challenges in future Astroparticle Physics projects European astroparticle physicists are planning the next generation of experiments to be built within the next decade. Success of the projects in direct dark matter detection, low energy neutrino physics, high energy neutrino telescopy, proton decay, neutrino properties, high energy gamma ray and cosmic ray astrophysics as well as gravitational wave detection highly depends on technological challenges and the availability of variety of advanced photosensors in large quantities. While the total investment for these projects is estimated with 1.5 billion Euro over the next decade, about 30 % of costs will be associated with photosensors. For a thorough planning of all stakeholders it is important to carefully elaborate the timing of the projects and their needs as well as the market availability of key products. The ASPERA Technology Forum shall provide a discussion platform for companies, project scientists and funding agencies to define the future ways of boosting cooperation to the benefit of all stakeholders. In the discussions of the workshop the following questions shall be addressed: What are the requirements of the coming projects concerning photosensors? What are the technological challenges? What products are available and what kind of R&D activities are required? What is the potential of joint research activities? Is there an R&D strategy that can be commonly followed by research institutes and SME? What is the impact of developments on other scientific fields or market ready products? What are the bottlenecks when scientists cooperate with industries, what are the typical wishes of industrial partners and of scientists?

6 Information about Munich Foto: David Kostner Munich is the capital city of Bavaria, Germany. Bavaria is by far the largest German state by area, forming almost 20 % of the total land area of Germany. Bavaria is Germany s second most populous state (after North Rhine Westphalia) with almost 12.5 million inhabitants, more than any of the three sovereign states on its borders. It is located on the River Isar north of the Bavarian Alps. Munich is the third largest city in Germany, after Berlin and Hamburg. There are approximately 1.35 million people living within city limits, while the Munich Metropolitan Area (including the urban areas of Augsburg, Ingolstadt, Rosenheim and Landshut) is home to over 5 million people. The city s motto is München mag Dich (Munich Likes You). Before 2006, it was Weltstadt mit Herz (Cosmopolitan city with a heart). Its native name, München, is derived from the Old German word Mönche, meaning Monks. The city s name derives from the monks of the Benedictine order who founded the city; hence the monk depicted on the city s coat of arms. Black and gold the colours of the Holy Roman Empire have been the city s official colours since the time of Ludwig the Bavarian. Map of Munich: More about Munich:
