In addition to this program and apart from the social event, a “bistro scientifique” - science café - took place on the Tuesday night: this was an opportunity to get together in a less formal way. It brought up a cross-view on research and technology transfer from two stakeholders: one recognized scientist with a long experience on collaboration with industry, and an SME software development project leader. This dialog was a real matter of debating for Imagine the Future’s participants!
CEO Willem Jonker has been very happy to encourage personally this dynamic and cheerful working community.
