Earlier this year a delegation from the Hong Kong Institution of Engineers – Young Member Committee visited the Floating Pavilion in Rotterdam. The visit was part of a trip to the Netherlands which offered participants the opportunity to explore the various Dutch hydraulic engineering works that protect our country. At the Floating Pavilion a presentation was given on our Blue Revolution vision.
In the last month Blue21 has been in contact with the Rockefeller foundation.
