What started as a simple internship ended up shaping the course of Daan’s education and career. During his secondary vocational education in mechatronics, Daan took an orientation internship at Demcon, working on prototyping. That experience became a turning point.

Rijkswaterstaat has officially received its first DUS V1875 unmanned survey vessel (USV), named REMO 1, from Demcon unmanned systems, marking an important milestone in future-proofing their services.

Last summer, we were visited by Douwe de Vries, a reporter from Overijssel Onderweg. Throughout the season, he toured several companies in the province to learn about their sustainable mobility policies. True to the theme, he cycled all the way from the provincial government building in Zwolle to our headquarters in Enschede. During his visit, he interviewed Emma van Geel (Manager Corporate Sustainability) and Mika Bakker (Communications Specialist). You can read the result below.

After more than a decade at Radboud University, completing her bachelor’s, master’s, and PhD in physics, Elze felt it was time for a change. “I wanted to experience the working world outside of academia,” she says. “Preferably at a larger company, where I could explore different roles and really find out what suits me.”

Over the years, Bart and Demcon have been drawn to each other like magnets. His journey began as a working student at Demcon kryoz, and although he has explored different paths, Demcon has always remained part of his story.
