On Tuesday 6 December Aramco Europe and IRO welcomed more than 50 (IRO) companies active in the sustainability and renewables fields as well as contractors and service providers at the DOB-Academy.
The event went beyond conventional fossil fuel energy to include non-metallic and industrial 4.0, as well as sustainability/renewable energy sources.
In the morning there were short presentations by Aramco and a case study: an example of successful localization in Saudi Arabia by J de Jonge Group.
After the (networking) lunch all the participants could have 0ne-to-one meetings with the people from Aramco.
Subjects they could choose from:
- Aramco opportunities for Dutch suppliers

- Projects Shaping Our Tomorrow – Project Management General bid slate
- In-Kingdom Total Value Add (IKTVA) Program in Motion
- Training and Development Support in Saudi Arabia
