Second network meeting of Digital Production Networks

The second network meeting of Digital Production Networks was taking place on September 9 at Cato Composites B.V.. We combined the DPN network meeting with an MNM Partner Meeting organized by Oost NL, giving the opportunity to make new contacts and meet new German or Dutch project partners or customers. We started with a joint lunch and a presentation of Cato Composites B.V., including a short tour.

This was followed by a public part of our network meeting, to which MNM partners were warmly invited. At 3:00 p.m., we moved to the closed part of the meeting.
