Our mission is to reduce fossil fuel consumption by developing innovative, sustainable energy solutions that reduce cost and speed up implementation of electric machines, thus drastically reducing CO2 emissions. Based at the High Tech Campus in Eindhoven, we operate in a vibrant hub of technology and innovation, fostering a culture of collaboration and excellence.
