hy-fcell Speaker's Corner

[Translate to English:]

This was a chance to obtain knowledge content on the new technologies and business fields and to establish contacts - both with OEMs and supplier companies as well as with associations, initiatives, research institutions and users. Exciting discussions on relevant future topics on stage and insights into technologies and solutions of the global hydrogen, fuel cell and electrolyser industry in lectures were presented. The Speaker's Corner was part of the hy-fcell Expo and could be visited free of charge with your Expo ticket.
