December 2020 CLEANTECH EDITION (3)

IN BRIEF

Dear friends,

An unusual year, which has impacted us all, is drawing to an end. One of the positive things I think the year has taught us is the potential of digital solutions.

I therefore hope to see many of you at the virtual Cleantech Forum Europe on 12-14 January 2021 which is hosted by Luxembourg. With the theme “From Chaos to Transformation: Tackling the Climate Crisis Together”, the event will give you an opportunity to meet leading innovators and get updates on the innovation trends and topics that will define the next decade. You will, for example, hear about Luxembourg’s solution “Product Circularity Data Sheets” that unites data with the circular economy.

I have the pleasure of being able to offer a limited number of reduced tickets to the Forum. If you are interested, please contact me at +352 621 986 659 or georges.schaaf@luxinnovation.lu.

I wish you and your families Happy Holidays. Stay safe!
