Comments from participants

The IndustryForum concept works extremely well and it offers much more than a regular seminar. In 1,5 days you have time to hear great presentations, network and meet new colleagues. Networking with colleagues and partners is really easy and effective because of Meeting Manager. I really can recommend IndustryForum Energy to my colleagues. Vesa Hynninen, Business Development Manager, Vantaan Energia, FInland

My personal reason to participate in the IndustryForum Energy is on the one hand that I want to stay up to date about what is happening in this very dynamic field. And on the other hand to share my vision with others so that I can make an effective contribution to the energy debate. Roelf Tiktak, Manager R&D Energy Innovation & Consultancy, Nederlandse Gasunie N.V., The Netherlands

At IndustryForum Energy the arrangements were excellent and the presentations were actual and interesting. For me these two days were full of meetings that I booked. When all parties are present it's easy to have the meeting without separate traveling. I can warmly recommend IndustryForums because the events give a great possibility to update your knowledge and make new contacts. Iiro Rinta-Jouppi, Business Development Director, Vattenfall Verkko Oy, Finland
