ASQ 2025
Meet, inspire and innovate at the crossroads of technology and social impact
ASQ (All Sorts of Questions) Fontys is the annual networking and inspiration meeting of the Centre of Expertise HTSM. At this exciting event, professionals from the business sector discuss current high-tech developments in the Netherlands with governments and with knowledge institutions such as Fontys.
Centre of Expertise High Tech Systems and Materials (CoE HTSM) is the link between education, research and the professional domain. We make impact with practice-oriented high-tech research within our three societal themes: making the manufacturing industry more sustainable, energy transition and healthcare. We do this by translating technological innovations into practice and integrating new technical insights into education and business.
On Tuesday 4 November 2025, Nexus in Eindhoven will again be dedicated to inspiration, meeting and collaboration. With a powerful keynote and interactive innovation cafés, during ASQ Fontys will create space for substantive deepening, new connections and concrete follow-up actions.
Working together on solutions for tomorrow
The social transitions we are facing require smart technology, cooperation across sector boundaries and a willingness to share and apply knowledge. Not through one-way traffic, but in dialogue. During ASQ Fontys, the seeds of innovations are being planted for future collaboration.
Whether you are concerned with circular production processes, smart energy systems or tomorrow's healthcare technologies, at ASQ Fontys you will find like-minded people. We are always looking for (new) partners to give direction to research and to carry it out together. During ASQ, we make those connections. We think, dare and act together.
An afternoon of inspiration, interaction and innovation
ASQ Fontys is composed of two main parts:
- Keynote speaker: Be inspired by a leading speaker who looks ahead, excites and connects.
- Innovation cafés: In small, thematic working sessions, you will engage with other professionals, researchers and policymakers on topical issues. You share insights, explore opportunities for cooperation and translate ideas into actions. The innovation cafés are geared towards meeting and exchanging knowledge.
The full programme will be announced shortly.
