Following the success of our first hub, we are now heading to Ostend for the Belgian Hub. We are seeking SMEs with groundbreaking solutions (TRL 4-6) in the North-West Europe region who are developing innovative products, technologies, or services within the offshore renewable energy sector; including offshore wind, wave, tidal energy, and blue economy suppliers.
