🔎 Looking back at the Innovation Mission Advancing NL-UK Neuromorphic Computing Collaboration The final two days of the Innovation Mission on Neuromorphic Computing provided deep insights, hands-on experiences, and forward-looking discussions that will shape future collaboration between the UK and the Netherlands in this ever more important field. 🔬 Day 3: Exploring Cambridge’s Research Landscape We had the privilege of visiting the University of Cambridge, where we engaged in lab tours showcasing cutting-edge deposition techniques, cleanroom facilities, and advanced measurement tools. A highlight was learning about NanoPrint Innovations Limited, a spinout from Judith Driscoll's research group, as well as Cambridge-based semicon company Paragraf, and exploring commercialisation pathways through Cambridge Enterprise. The discussions with Cambridge researchers and entrepreneurs underscored the critical role of interdisciplinary collaboration in pushing neuromorphic computing forward. 🏛 Day 4: Charting the Future Our mission concluded with a strategic session at the Embassy of the Kingdom of the Netherlands in the United Kingdom, where we reflected on key takeaways and outlined next steps for strengthening the neuromorphic ecosystem. A heartfelt thank you to all our hosts (specifically to Markus Hellenbrand and Sebastian Dixon), speakers, and participants for making this mission a success. The foundations for impactful, cross-border collaboration have been set, and we look forward to the next steps in advancing this exciting field.

Only people interested in creating real impact are being part of our story! Looking forward to scale up our reach and open the door to more people like Roy Williamson who cares for excellence and sustainable value creation. Thanks a lot for your support

📣 Only a few days to go until the Netherlands Innovation Mission to the UK on Neuromorphic Computing! From 24-27 March, the Innovation Mission on Neuromorphic Computing will take place in London and Cambridge. We have the pleasure of hosting a significant Dutch delegation, led by the Frits Grotenhuis (Topsector ICT). We look forward to welcoming this strong Dutch delegation to the UK for the mission, and to the opportunities for British and Dutch organisations to join forces in the pursuit to create a better, more innovative, and sustainable future together.

Zes consortia van in totaal 26 Nederlandse hightech bedrijven en kennisinstellingen gaan cruciale technologie ontwikkelen voor de Einstein Telescope, Europa’s meest geavanceerde observatorium voor het meten van zwaartekrachtsgolven uit de ruimte. Hiervoor ontvangen zij ruim 12 miljoen euro aan subsidie. De R&D-regeling is onderdeel van het Einstein Telescope valorisatieprogramma voor hightech bedrijven, een programma van het Nationaal Groeifonds. De regeling wordt uitgevoerd door de regionale ontwikkelingsmaatschappijen (ROM’s) onder leiding van LIOF.
