Welcome to the Rotterdam Square newsletter, September edition!
As summer winds down, we are picking up the pace again. In this newsletter, we look back at a few highlights from just before the summer break. We also announce a team transition, and share what is coming up this fall to (re)connect with the Life Sciences & Health community and to further strengthen the ecosystem.
We hope the summer brought you inspiration, rest, and renewed energy!
