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. Our regional pillar representative from 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 panel discussion will follow, with project developers and coordinators as well as European and regional policymakers and industry members who will highlight opportunities available for the development of hydrogen valleys and the benefits these ecosystems bring to regional and national economies. The distinguished panel will also have an open dialogue on the challenges facing hydrogen valleys. Of particular importance is the issue of what more can be done to further support the R&D and the uptake of new technologies within hydrogen valleys, as well as support the inclusion of startups and SMEs into these ecosystems. The moderator will then wrap up the event and invite the audience to make use of the coffee break for matchmaking and networking.  

This event aims to contribute to the acceleration of the development of hydrogen valleys across Europe and demonstrate their added value to the European hydrogen economy.
