Based on the development of an industrial theme-oriented network and a network for pupils, the new activities of the public relations of the CRC are focused on the target groups industry and pupils in order sustainably propagate the main research topic of gentelligent components sustainably in public. The pupils (15-19 years) as the next generation of scientists will develop a learning module with a knowledge quiz based on the topics of the subprojects of the CRC for 4th grade pupils. Within the industrial network, longterm cooperations will be established between science and industry to transfer the research results of the CRC into future industrial applications. Both networks should continue after the end of the CRC.
