Last week on Friday the 17th of March, DUJAT traveled to Wageningen for a very interesting and informative first company visit of the year. We were honored to introduce our members to this innovative part of the Netherlands, where business, research and education all come together.
After a warm welcome and a tour at Wageningen Campus, we also caught a glimpse of the company and facilities of KeyGene and learned a lot about the future of global agriculture.
We thank all of our members for participating and hope you had a good time. Hopefully see you at our next event, at the Cherry Blossom Festival!
