How fusion reaches new frontiers: Dutch Fusion Day 2025
‘The only thing that is harder than doing fusion, is raising funds for fusion.’ This statement by key note speaker Klaas de Boer resonated well with the nearly 200 participants of the second Dutch Fusion Day, hosted by DIFFER and co-organized by TU/e EIRES and BigScienceNL on May 9, 2025. A myriad of speakers covered business, research and governmental perspectives on the next and now of nuclear fusion.
IBF/25
The IBF/25 was a very successful event, with strong visibility for Big Science NL and the Dutch industry. It provided an excellent platform to strengthen existing relationships, build new connections, and highlight the expertise of Dutch companies and research organizations in the fusion sector.
