A strong community starts with people who are willing to make a difference

Tu 29 September 2026

For many years, founders, board members and members have dedicated their time, expertise and energy to strengthening the LIFE Cooperative and the Life Sciences & Health ecosystem in the Northern Netherlands.

During this year's LIFE Science Conference, we honoured several former board members for their dedication, leadership and commitment over the years.

A sincere thank you to our former board members Theo Flipsen, Jan Thalens, Gunnar Flik, Ep Oosting and Kees van der Graaf. Their leadership, vision and years of commitment have played an important role in strengthening our organisation.

We also celebrated a special milestone, recognising eleven members who marked ten years of membership with the LIFE Cooperative: Ardena, PolyVation, IQ Products, QPS Holdings, LLC, Demcon, Lode Holding B.V., Spark Holland BV, Innocore, Regenity Biosciences, Laboratorium Medisan and Symeres.

Looking back, we are grateful to everyone who has contributed to our journey. Together, we look forward to building the next chapter of the LIFE Cooperative.
