Today saw the launch of the SURF Tech Trends report: this trend report highlights the technological trends that are having the greatest impact. In this way, SURF is preparing Dutch education and research for the complex world of the near future. Experts from universities, colleges, vocational colleges and university medical centres contributed to the report in order to paint as broad a picture as possible.
