As relatively new sectors , the topics surrounding clean hydrogen and green steel production attracted an impressive number of visitors , all eager to gain insights , share concerns , and pose burning questions . In particular , the conference rooms for both events saw packed audiences , and interactions generated conversations about how each industry may progress and the major pain points in their way . Green Steel World ’ s Conference Manager Tanya Rudra describes what the success of the event really means : “ It is a true testament to the fact that the steel industry is committed to addressing the challenges that lie ahead and is actively pursuing new and innovative solutions that will enable us to produce steel in a more sustainable and responsible manner .” Tanya goes on to explain that the conference and expo offered an unmatched opportunity to interact with experts and learn about the latest technologies , initiatives , success stories and at the same time challenges , bottlenecks , and roadblocks for the industry . “ We worked tirelessly to put this event together and it was heartening to see our hard work over the past year paid off .”
The enthusiasm was shared by Hydrogen Tech World ’ s Conference Manager Matjaž Matošec , who summarised the event as “ a resounding success and a celebration of knowledge sharing !” Matjaž expressed that the 24 outstanding and masterfully delivered presentations on a broad range of highly relevant topics were key to generating much-needed discussion in the hydrogen sector . “ The audience size and level of active participation were a true testament to the strong community that we have built . During the breaks , the attendees engaged in lively discussions and networking , adding to the overall experience . Having set a solid foundation for future events , I am eagerly anticipating next year ’ s edition and look forward to watching the Hydrogen Tech World community grow and thrive !” Indeed , one of the key presentations from Hydrogen Tech World ’ s conference programme came from Alfa Laval ’ s Achim Heiming , Manager Process Heat Exchangers ( Mid Europe ), Energy Division . “ We enjoyed the congress and had a very good experience , gaining contacts and even receiving request for quotations ,” said Achim . “ The very interesting presentations gave us key market insights and technical know-how .” Overall , both events have proven valuable to their direct and associated industries and have established themselves as vital meeting points for future progression .
