Stichting toekomstbeeld der techniek organizes a series of workshops to explore the future of our oceans. WaterProof B.V. will be present! “How can our oceans contribute to the solution and dealing with major societal challenges rising the coming 35 years?

During the workshops we will challenge the participants to think out of the box: what if the unthinkable becomes reality, what does that imply for your sector?” (www.stt.nl).
