From the long-term opportunity of hydrogen to the immediate tender opportunities with Doosan Babcock and from how you can use the PPP Social Impact Toolkit to improve your tenders to the opportunities the Industrial Solutions Hub will bring to the area it's all covered in our next meeting on Wednesday.
