November 2009: CleanTech Event

In 2009, the Technion Society of the Netherlands devoted special attention to green technologies, and, therefore, organized a CleanTech event that took place in Rotterdam on 5 November 2009. The event was hosted by Erasmus Universiry Rotterdam.

During this event, trends and innovations in Cleantech were presented; with participants from industry, academics and government, it provided an excellent networking opportunity for everyone interested in Cleantech or high-tech in general.  The Minister of Science and Technology of Israel – Prof. Daniel Hershkovitz participated in this event. The Ambassador of Israel – Harry Kney-Tal also attended the event. They both gave inspirational speeches on cooperation across borders and cooperation between the Netherlands and Israel in particular. Having spoken about cooperation between two great countries, two Memorandums of Understanding were signed between the Erasmus School of Economics, the Rotterdam School of Management and the Technion.

Those of you, who participated, would agree that it was a success!
