The Common Ground for Innovation Awards will showcase the most innovative and culturally inclusive people and organisations in and around Brainport Eindhoven. Don't miss out on this unique opportunity to gain new perspectives and network with like-minded professionals from the public and private tech sectors. We will celebrate impactful leaders and organisations in 3 categories: Promising Tech Innovation; Visionary Leader; and Social Innovator.
To highlight this special occasion, we are delighted to announce that Jeroen Dijsselbloem (Mayor of Eindhoven and Chairman of Brainport Foundation) will kick off the event with an opening speech, followed by an engaging keynote by Dr. Michael Houben. After an energizing break, we will dive into the state of inclusive innovation in Brainport Eindhoven with a carefully selected panel of industry, academia and policy leaders from renowned organizations like ASML, NXP, TNO, TU/e, Rotterdam School of Management, Dutch New Narrative Lab and Drone Council Nederland. The main event ends with annoucing the award winners from a list of highly regarded finalists for each category.
You will enjoy all this in addition to delicious food and drinks at the stunning facilities of the Conference Center of High Tech Campus Eindhoven.
