The opening speaker of the BBD 2022 is the Dutch astronaut André Kuipers! He will talk about technology & innovation in space. As he studied medicine, he will also share interesting insights into the medical aspects of being an astronaut.

Unfortunately, due to Corona there is a maximum capacity for the opening talk. However, if there are many enrollments, we will consider to host a livestream and broadcast it in other rooms, so as many people as possible can enjoy André’s talk.
