On March 31 2025, the Dutch minister of Economic Affairs, Dirk Beljaarts visited the booth of the Centre of Excellence for Data Sharing and Cloud (CoE-DSC). Peter Verkoulen (directeur CoE-DSC) and Sjoerd Rongen (coordinator Centre of Excellence for Digital Product Passports – CoE-DPP) pitched the CoE-DSC (and CoE-DPP as part of that) and emphasized the importance of collaboration to the Dutch minister.
Part of this pitch was also Jakub Boratyński from DG GROW and Teresa Oberhauser from Circularise.
Collaboration is everything, not just within The Netherlands, but also in an international context. With our common goal to create new business opportunities for Dutch and European companies. But also to become more self-provisioning in digital solutions.
