Rotterdam World Hydrogen Summit & Exhibition 2026 - Netherlands Innovation Network
18 May Rotterdam World Hydrogen Summit & Exhibition 2026
The World Hydrogen Summit & Exhibition 2026 (19-21 May, Rotterdam) comes at a time when Indo-Dutch hydrogen collaboration is moving from discussions to real projects.
The Netherlands Innovation Network India is supporting a high-level Indian delegation (80+ participants) including central and state ministries, hydrogen valley leaders, industry, research institutes and think tanks. This builds on concrete outcomes such as the Indo-Dutch Hydrogen Valley Fellowship and the Goa Hydrogen Valley proposal, creating a strong pipeline for R&D collaboration, pilot projects in Kerala and Odisha valleys and co-development of technologies with the Indian side etc.
Alongside the summit, the programme includes a visit to the Groningen hydrogen valley (18 May) and engagements with the Port of Rotterdam and leading Dutch companies such as Hydroflexx, XINTC and Nedstack. With dedicated roundtables and discussions on maritime decarbonisation and the India-NL hydrogen corridor, this is a unique opportunity for Dutch stakeholders to connect directly with decision-makers and position their technologies in one of the fastest-growing hydrogen markets.
