Event ‘High-tech technologies from space and fusion’

A whole universe of technologies from the space and fusion industry is within your reach. How to apply these technologies in your next innovation? What are the possibilities for your business needs? Find it out on Thursday 23 January during a network event.

Technology transfer in extreme conditions

Technologies developed for the space and fusion industry perform in extreme conditions. They combine innovative approaches to withstand magnetic fields, high heat, mechanical loading and more. To maximize the efficiency of investments in space and the potential of fusion technologies, Verhaert organizes a network event to promote these technologies for earthly applications. Eager to know more about technology transfer? Visit euro-fusion.org and esa.int.

Synergy between space and fusion technologies

The brokership within EUROfusion’s program is a great addition to Verhaert’s ESA Space Solutions Belgium activity, facilitating open innovation in high-tech product development. With demonstrator calls and new tools, we promote the use of space and fusion technologies in innovation projects throughout Europe. In need of technology? Verhaert is looking forward to help you with transferring space or fusion technology in the development of breakthrough projects.
