Hydrogen Valleys: regions meet industry Event
This event aims to discuss the interplay between regions and R&D in terms of hydrogen valleys and as such hopes to help foster ever stronger links between regions and industry. Kick-off speeches on public funding by DG RTD and the Regional Pillar representative of the Hydrogen Europe Board of Directors will set the scene for an inspiring conversation on critical R&D and the role of regions in the development of hydrogen value chains. A structured panel discussion on public funding for hydrogen valleys will follow, with testimonials from various stakeholders. Following the testimonials, there will be an open dialogue with regions and industry members on their specific funding needs. The moderator will then wrap up the event and invite the audience to make use of the matchmaking tables. This exciting event aims to achieve one of the goals of Hydrogen Europe - to accelerate the development of hydrogen valleys across Europe and demonstrate their added-value to the European hydrogen economy.
