On September 23 and 24, 2026, Margreet de Kok from TNO, one of PERSIMMON’s key consortium partners, participated as a speaker at the 2nd European Sustainable Electronics Forum, held at the Park Inn by Radisson Amsterdam City West in Amsterdam, Netherlands.
The event, organised by InventU and held by invitation only, brought together senior professionals from across the electronics value chain to discuss strategies for circularity, regulatory compliance, and responsible innovation in the electronics industry.
Margreet de Kok took the stage alongside Sharina Ligtelijn from Philips to present findings from the Sustronics European project, addressing topics directly aligned with PERSIMMON’s sustainability agenda: eco-design, sustainable materials, circular economy principles, and the environmental impact of electronic devices.
The forum provided a high-profile platform to bring the findings and perspectives developed within European research projects to the attention of commercial companies and industry decision-makers, reinforcing the relevance of PERSIMMON’s approach to biodegradable, low-impact wearable electronics in a broader industrial context.
