Anouk Hubrechsen

New antenna technology for fast 6G 'To measure the operation of 6G antennas, you need to be able to 'see' electromagnetic waves. With AntenneX, we make the invisible visible.'
Jeroen Sol

'New scientific knowledge contributes to our quality of life. That’s my future dream, also for this 3D printing material.'
