IBF/25
23-04-2025 - 25-04-2025
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.
The Dutch stand hosted seven companies: Mat-Tech, VDL, Hositrad, Demcon, Stirling Cryogenics, HIT, and Kusters & Bosch. Additionally, Vernooy Vacuum Engineering joined the event and expressed strong interest in participating in future initiatives such as Dutch Fusion Day, BSBF 2026, and upcoming IBF events. The visibility of the Dutch ecosystem was excellent, and the participating companies made valuable contacts throughout the event. There was strong attention to remote handling in both presentations and discussions, aligning well with expertise available in the Netherlands. Overall, IBF/25 not only helped consolidate our existing network but also opened important new avenues for Dutch companies and research organizations to further strengthen their international presence in the fusion sector.
