Dear Colleague,
The Netherlands and Japan are important and innovative players in the Deeptech fields of Semiconductors, Quantum Technology and Integrated Photonics. Growing markets and industries offer many opportunities for cooperation between the two like-minded countries.
In the past three years, the Ministry of Economic Affairs, RVO, the Netherlands Embassy in Japan, Quantum Delta NL, Photon Delta NL, High Tech NL, Oost-NL, BOM and Brainport, supported by the business and research community- joined hands to develop relations with Japanese counterparts. Activities included innovation missions to Japan, NL-Pavilions at relevant Expo’s in Tokyo, roadshows and online webinars, matchmake and network events. In total almost 60 Dutch organizations joined these activities, yielding multiple follow-ups and bilateral agreements between governments, companies, and research organizations.

The program is set to start mid-2024. In the spirit of these preparations we hereby invite you to join:
