Dutch Greenhouse Delta

Yesterday, we had the pleasure of hosting Mr.Olim Kasimov, CEO of the TIP Center (Trade and Innovation Project Center) in #Uzbekistan, alongside Mr.Muzaffar Mukaramov from the Uzbek Embassy in Belgium. It was truly inspiring to meet such an enthusiastic and forward-thinking leader who recognizes the value of the Netherlands’ expertise in: 🌱 Advanced Agriculture 📚 Education and Research 💧 Water Resource Management Mr. Kasimov shared the Uzbek government’s ambition to strengthen ties with the Netherlands in these areas, highlighting his dedication to leveraging his extensive public-sector experience to align the private sector with a sustainable development strategy. Together with Mariska Dreschler from GreenTech and Pieter van der Marel from KUBO Group, we showcased the strength of the Dutch horticultural sector and discussed how to bring key stakeholders together through platforms that foster mutual learning, understanding, and innovation. This collaboration presents a tremendous opportunity for the Netherlands to be more present in Uzbekistan, share knowledge and innovations, assist with addressing critical local challenges. We are excited about the next steps in this promising partnership and the chance to contribute to Uzbekistan’s sustainable development goals. #Innovation #Sustainability #Netherlands #Uzbekistan #Collaboration #Horticulture #CEA #CentralAsia
