Sustainability at the F1 Heineken Dutch Grand Prix
Dimitri Bonthuis is director Media & Sports Development at SportVibes and currently involved in major events like ABN AMRO Open and F1 Heineken Dutch Grand Prix. At the Dutch GP he is responsible for sustainability. This evening, Dimitri will talk about his experiences with sustainability at the Grand Prix, exploring how he approaches the topic, which innovations have been key, the challenges of driving sustainable initiatives, and how these efforts fit into a broader strategic vision.

21.00 Networking with coffee/tea

During this evening Paul Stefaan Mooij will introduce the DIY Smart Glasses he developed, he is bringing several 'arms'. The PMSG kit lets you swap out those boring old arms from your (sun)glasses for a custom-made PCBA that looks and functions like something a hacker MacGyver would dream up. It fits just like the original—using the same hinges, screws, and probably duct tape somewhere—but now you’ve got space for sensors, connectors, and all the IoT magic you can pack onto your temples.

Join us to experiment, learn and envision new sensors and possibilities.
