For whom?

The innovation mission is of interest to representatives of:

In addition, your organisation is active in one of the following sectors:

Goals of the mission

What do we want to achieve with the innovation mission?

• Leads were laid during the Israeli hydrogen research mission to the Netherlands in May 2022. We will follow these up in Israel.
• We want to identify areas for cooperation in hydrogen production, transport and storage with leading public, private and government institutions in Israel.
• We want to learn from start-ups in Israel in green hydrogen production.
• We are handling open Horizon Europe and Clean Hydrogen Partnership calls to submit proposals to address hydrogen issues in the European Union.
• We want to establish mutual cooperation in a Dutch-Israeli hydrogen platform focused on innovation, trade and investment.

Draft programme

The programme in Israel includes visits to companies, knowledge institutions and government organisation and a networking reception.

The mission starts on Sunday 4 June 2023 from the Netherlands. The return trip from Israel is on Friday 9 June 2023.
