Invitation from the Dutch Province: provinsje fryslân
In the first week of October 2018 the Dutch province of Friesland (provinsje fryslân) will organise an Infrastructure week and has invited the NETLIPSE Network to participate in a knowledge-sharing meeting and visit one of the projects.
The province is completing a 20-year multi-billion Euro investment programme that is currently being reviewed, based on the IPAT methodology.
The infrastructure event in Friesland will take place on Thursday 4th and Friday 5th October 2018 in Leeuwarden. Leeuwarden is the European Capital of Culture in 2018.
