Wageningen University & Research will host the first international conference ‘Water Science for Impact’ on 16 to 18 October, where our researchers Barbara Dal Bo Zanon from Blue21 and Rui de Lima from INDYMO will present their findings.

The UN couldn’t have chosen for a more appropriate location for their Global Centre on Adaptation: a floating office in the Rijnhaven, next to Blue21’s floating pavilion.

For the first time, The Hague organised the Volvo Ocean Race Finish, one of the biggest and most innovative sports event in the world. Blue21 was in attendance at the innovation pavilion presenting our vision of solving 21st century urban challenges with sustainable development on water.

Blue21 architect, Barbara Dal Bo Zanon, and co-founder, Rutger de Graaf-van Dinther, gave a presentation at the Amsterdam Institute for Advanced Metropolitan Solutions (AMS Institute) on the topic of floating production of energy and food as an opportunity for coastal circular cities.

Blue21 co-founder, Karina Czapiewska was invited to give a presentation about the Blue Revolution at the Blue Week Event held by the Blue Forum in Rotterdam, the Netherlands, on 28^th of May. The purpose of the forum was to provide an open platform for new Joint Industry Projects.
