Editor's Notes
We have a concept, and we have a proof of concept in validation process thanks to 2 European funded projects (Current Direct and Naïma).
VITO’s SmartCells project should get to the next level and therefore we are looking to close a collaboration agreement before the end of 2022 with:
a SEMICONDUCTOR PARTNER,
a BATTERY CELL MANUFACTURER and
a PRODUCTION LINE MACHINE SUPPLIER.
Thanks for your attention.
Look to chairman if we have time for questions.
If you have more questions, you can come to me, I will be around during the rest of the conference including tomorrow!
