Back to updates

Early last year, our team made a discovery that opened the door for a significant improvement of our technology. Since then, we’ve covertly been working on this development. On Thursday, May 11th, we will finally be ready to unveil the results, surrounded by our supporters at a special event at the ‘Werkspoorkathedraal‘ in Utrecht, The Netherlands.
