About Technoport

Bringing the voice of Science in dialogue with businesspeople and decisions makers

It is our experience that the voices of science and technology are often absent and unheard in the international policy-making arena. Technoport believes in creating a platform for dialogue and identify common ground for transition-centred technology. This will allow scientific and technological voices to be heard and leading edge scientific knowledge shared with important international decision makers, politicians, businesspeople and industrialists.

Creating an international Knowledge Sharing Platform

Technoport has the objective of developing a knowledge-sharing platform that involves key international stakeholders from science and technology, policy making and industry. The objective of this platform is to share the possibilities and stimulate the transition towards the green economy.

Technoport will build this international knowledge platform by its Technoport Talks and its biannual international scientific conferences that focus on the topics that are relevant for smart technology in the transition towards the green economy. Each conference will consist of inspiring presentations of research, Technoport Talks, Technoport Awards and the Technoport Summit.
