On Thursday 27 January, Connectr was the starting location for 23 HAN students who are at the beginning of the Hydrogen Technology theme route.

In this theme route, students work on hydrogen cases within their current study load. The theme route does not result in an additional study load, but is shaped by the choices you make during your degree course. Especially in the projects, internship and the graduation assignment.

In the middle of the dynamic hall in which the Connectr Innovation Lab is being developed, the students, together with HAN researchers and companies involved, were welcomed by Erik Folgering. He is responsible for education and research at Connectr.

Erik gave a brief explanation of the Connectr ambitions in the field of hydrogen and illustrated how students will play an active role in this. “Here you can shape your environment to your liking: there is so much to do together with companies here at IPKW – seize the opportunity to contribute to that.”

After that, in smaller groups, the students visited companies in the Connectr ecosystem: Elestor, HyET, Nedstack and Hygear. The carrousel of company visits was concluded with a joint lunch in the HAN H2LAB. By the way, this company day was organised by SEECE in cooperation with HyET.
