Dutch Prime Minister leads delegation to S Africa to scope possible synergies

Netherlands Prime Minister Mark Rutte is currently leading a delegation of over 75 Dutch companies to Johannesburg to attend the four-day House of the Future event, which brings together key thought leaders and industry stakeholders to generate solutions for shared challenges in the health, logistics, energy, agrifood and water sectors. Organised by ‘#cocreateSA’ – a platform for South African and Dutch counterparts to exchange innovations for a sustainable future – and created by the Kingdom of the Netherlands in South Africa, the initiative would include a workshop on climate-smart agriculture, talks on electronically based sustainable port development, a brainstorming session on ecological air transport and an interactive session on three training apps for surgeons.
