Something for everyone
Impulse, opened in september 2012, is a Wageningen UR initiative. Having said this, it does not only provide a platform for scientists, lecturers and students. Policy-makers, entrepreneurs and interested citizens are also welcome to attend the programmes or even initiate events themselves. Bringing together people with knowledge of very different disciplines leads to new and exciting ideas. Linking knowledge to industry leads to innovation.
People can either meet in an informal setting with a drink and a bite to eat, or at a well-organised brainstorm session or sports event. Practically anything is possible and Impulse always tries to provide a widely varied programme.
Collaborating with the region
Wherever possible, Impulse uses regional suppliers. The Peeze coffee comes from Arnhem, the cakes and pastries from ROC RijnIJssel, the wine is supplied by Wijnhandel Woudenberg.
