This event was realized within the framework of the NEXT-KPI program (Ministry of Foreign Affairs and Trade) and truly strengthened Hungarian-Dutch cooperation on the road to a smarter transport future.
The Roadshow provided Hungarian innovators with excellent opportunities to connect directly with leading Dutch companies and institutions involved in the smart city and smart mobility ecosystems.
We extend our sincere gratitude to our co-organizers, hosts, and partners whose support made this event possible:
Ana Alanis from Brainport Development and Bram Hendrix from RAI Automotive Industry NL for their instrumental role in involving the Dutch partners. Sascha Bloemhoff from Automotive Campus for the incredible hospitality and essential support.
The day was packed with many valuable insights and 'behind-the-scenes' experiences. A huge thank you to Bram van Liere from DHL Express Netherlands for the informative site visit, giving us a closer look at their smart logistics solutions and operational challenges at the service center. Jeroen van der Werf from VDL ETS shared deep insights into the company's e-mobility developments, battery testing technology, and provided a fascinating tour of their R&D center. Bastiaan Krosse from TNO-MARQ center introduced their mission and provided a real 'behind the scenes' experience at their test-lab, where some brave volunteers even took part in a simulation experiment.
Thank you to all the further Dutch business representatives and stakeholders, including Municipality Helmond, Brace Automotive, MST Group, and V-tron, for their active presence and valuable brainstorming regarding potential collaboration.
Last but not least, we were delighted to welcome our Hungarian delegation: Adaptive Recognition Hungary Ltd., ARport, Asura Technologies Ltd., DriveByCloud Ltd., Integricom Hungary Ltd., Mattorgroup Inc., and Percive AI.
