In the context of the Belgian State Visit to the Netherlands, Wallonia Export & Investment Agency (AWEx) organized a symposium on entrepreneurial cooperation. Sam Waes, coordinator of Verhaert’s Technology Transfer program, had the honor to present Verhaert in presence of His Majesty King Philippe of Belgium. He focused on space technology and how it can be used to innovate on Earth. We exploit technology and know-how from space and initiate a technology transfer process between technology provider and receiver. Space technology can take companies to the next level.
