We are excited to announce that the UK (through H2FC SUPERGEN) and Korea will be signing a high level MOU in the area of Hydrogen & Fuel Cells on Wednesday 6th November in London. To mark the agreement of the MOU two open events at Imperial and St Andrews will take place with the aim of stimulating further collaborations between the UK and Korea in the area:
Roundtable discussion, 6th November, Imperial College London 13:00.15:30
(Solar Room, 170 Queens Gate, London SW7 5HF)
To help prioritise areas for collaboration between the UK and Korea, a roundtable discussion will take place on Nov 6th at Imperial College London. We anticipate that funding agencies from both the UK and Korea will be present, alongside key industrialists and academics from both countries. Please contact Dr Chloe Stockford (c.stockford@imperial.ac.uk) to attend and for more information.
