Held on 24 April, brought together a diverse group of stakeholders from across Europeโ€™s hydrogen ecosystem for a highly engaging and productive discussion.

The session marked an important step in connecting regional pilot initiatives with broader strategic implementation. Participants explored key challenges currently shaping the hydrogen landscapeโ€”ranging from infrastructure gaps and regulatory fragmentation to cost dynamics and demand uncertaintyโ€”while also highlighting concrete opportunities for cross-regional collaboration.

A special thank you to our speakers for their valuable insights and contributions:

The discussion clearly demonstrated the strength of the ๐ˆ๐‡-๐Œ๐ˆ๐„ network and the shared commitment to advancing hydrogen solutions across regions.

We are now looking ahead to the next phase of the project.

The ๐ˆ๐‡-๐Œ๐ˆ๐„ Open Call is set to launch in June, offering new opportunities for SMEs and stakeholders to engage, collaborate, and scale innovative hydrogen applications.

Stay tunedโ€”more details coming soon.
