DESCRIPTION:Streamline & simplify your clinical trials\nA benchmark of clinical trials in Europe\nAt the conference\, Peter Gisberts\, Director U-TRIAL (the Utrecht Trial Innovation Alliance) & THINC. Healthcare at UMC Utrecht will present the outcome of the ‘European-benchmark study clinical trial site selection: the Netherlands\, Belgium\, Denmark\, France\, Germany and the United Kingdom’  \nThe Netherlands partnered with Citeline to produce an extensive study on the attractiveness of conducting clinical trials in 7 European countries. Join this session to learn more about broad trends and find out in which areas the Netherlands stands out. \nIntroducing the Netherlands’ clinical research ecosystem\nThe Netherlands is renowned for its expertise in early-stage clinical research but performs equally well in other clinical phases. Around 600 new clinical drug trials are initiated annually\, with approximately 60\,000 participants. The country especially has a strong oncology trials presence\, comprising a third of all initiated trials since 2018. \nAs Europe’s connected LSH metropolis\, the Netherlands provides a clinical research climate with: \nAcademic excellence\nThe Netherlands excels in scientific output\, researcher quality and academic networks. Top Dutch universities strengthen its position among the top 100 in Europe for clinical and life science research. \nEase-of conducting clinical trials\nEasy access to stakeholders facilitated by a broad landscape of research networks makes collaboration easy. \nPatient availability\nThe Netherlands is faster at enrolling trials across a broad range of indications vs. other European countries like France\, Germany\, the UK\, Belgium\, Denmark & Spain. \nInfrastructure\nClose proximity to hospitals and high number of physicians for the population size is an advantage for patients regarding access to trial infrastructure and resource. \nA top destination for clinical research\nThe Netherlands offers unique opportunities for the enrolment of clinical trials. The country has a well connected and collaborative clinical research infrastructure with knowledge institutes\, science parks and CROs. All 7 University Medical Centers and most hospitals have extensive experience with running clinical trials and offer excellent facilities. And 8 Science parks with high concentrations of innovative companies facilitate clinical research by offering 300+ lab facilities specialized or suitable for clinical research. \nMeet the Invest in Holland team\nThe Invest in Holland Life Sciences & Health team will also be attending the conference and is looking forward to discussing how the Netherlands can be a good fit for your company’s clinical research.

SUMMARY:Enlit Europe
DESCRIPTION:The Invest in Holland energy team will be at Enlit Europe in Paris to promote opportunities for smart energy innovators in the Netherlands. The Enlit conference brings together thought leaders\, innovators and disruptors in the energy sector and beyond. Exhibitors represent power generators\, IPPs\, utilities\, grid operators\, energy companies\, retailers\, energy markets\, energy traders and exchanges\, plus commercial and industrial energy users. \nFrom energy source to generation; from grid to consumer\, the boundaries of the sector are blurring and this evolution is being shaped by established players\, external disruptors\, innovative start-ups and an increasingly engaged end-user. \nOpportunities for smart grid innovation in the Netherlands\nWhy should you launch your smart grid solution in the Netherlands? \nThe transition towards clean energy in the Netherlands is picking up serious speed. In particular\, electrification of fossil-powered applications is growing fast. But combined with the shift towards volatile renewable energy resources\, the surging demand for electricity has created capacity bottlenecks. As a result\, increasing efforts are directed towards the systems that balance supply and demand across the grid. \nThis creates great opportunities for local and international companies to team up with the renowned testing\, validation and certification institutes in the Netherlands to develop their smart grid solutions. \nAre you interested in further developing and scaling up your smart energy business in Europe? Let’s start the discussion about expanding in the Netherlands. \nMeet the Invest in Holland delegation at Enlit Europe\, Booth 7.2D30 or contact us at our NFIA France office or info@nfia.nl. \n  \n  \n
