Sensitive information that is sent securely today could still fall into the wrong hands in the future. Powerful quantum computers may eventually be able to break certain encryption methods. This poses a risk to organizations that exchange confidential data, such as government agencies, hospitals, and businesses. The Dutch-German Interreg project Making ConneQtions is developing new technology to keep digital communications secure well into the future.&nbsp;

TECH.LAND Business Base.jpg

The TECH.LAND Business Base makes the Dutch-German innovation ecosystem more visible and accessible. The project is developing an open, data-driven platform that brings together information about companies, research institutions, technologies, and expertise on both sides of the border. With the help of AI, this data is enriched, yielding new insights into potential partners, value chains, and opportunities for collaboration. In this way, the Business Base helps companies and other organizations collaborate more easily across the border.

The MedTech sector develops products that advance healthcare. At the same time, the sector generates a significant amount of waste, for example from single-use medical devices, gloves, and surgical gowns. MEDI4Future brings together companies, research institutions, and regional innovation partners from Northwestern Europe to change this. The project helps MedTech companies make circular solutions practically viable without compromising safety, quality, or regulatory compliance.

The Einstein Telescope (ET) will be a highly sensitive underground observatory for detecting gravitational waves. To make this groundbreaking technology possible, new innovations are needed in fields such as optics, lasers, vacuum technology, cryogenics, and data analysis. Through the Interreg VI project COMET (CoMaking the Einstein Telescope), Dutch and German companies, research institutions, and innovation partners are collaborating on the development of these key technologies.

Hydrogen to Business (H2B) promotes the use of hydrogen technology among energy-intensive small and medium-sized enterprises in the Interreg 6A Netherlands-Germany region. The project accelerates the adoption of green hydrogen, but also allows for low-carbon hydrogen and energy carriers (including methanol, biogas, and LOHCs) when electrification is not feasible. In this way, H2B directly contributes to “A more innovative program area” by increasing research and innovation capacity and introducing advanced technologies.

New Water develops and tests technologies to make alternative water streams suitable as sources for drinking water. These include industrial and domestic wastewater, rainwater and polluted surface water. The solutions are being tested in practice at seven locations across four countries.&nbsp;<a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer" href="https://oostnl.nl/producten/new-water">New Water | Oost NL</a>
