Koning Willem I College is a secondary vocational education provider (MBO) serving the regions of 's-Hertogenbosch, Oss, Meijerstad, Land van Cuijk, Uden, Boxtel, and, starting next school year, Tiel. The school offers a wide range of study programs in various fields, such as technology, care & welfare, economics & entrepreneurship, ICT, hospitality, creative arts, and safety. The college works closely with regional businesses to ensure that education and practice are well aligned. Learning in real-world work contexts, internships, and practical projects play an important role in this. A key theme within the college is LLO – Lifelong Learning. This means that learning does not stop after a diploma but is a continuous process throughout a person's career. Koning Willem I College addresses this through the Koningsacademie. Koningsacademie responds to this by: Offering flexible learning pathways, including for working professionals and adults; enabling upskilling and reskilling in collaboration with companies; offering modular programs and courses that align with changing labor market demands; and investing in continuous development paths so that students and professionals can continue to grow. LLO is therefore not only an educational vision, but also a connecting principle between the school, students, and the region. The college sees itself as a knowledge partner for both young people and adults who wish to continue their development. The atmosphere at Koning Willem I College is often characterized by a professional yet accessible learning environment. Attention is paid to personal guidance, talent development, and a safe learning environment. Students are encouraged to take responsibility for their own learning process and to work together on their future.

Mister KLIC is the new standard in KLIC software, with a clear twofold mission: helping prevent damage to underground infrastructure and offering the most complete KLIC application at the most competitive price. The solution has been developed by and for the market, together with end users. In practice, this translates into a user-friendly environment where you can quickly find your way around and immediately benefit from smart functionality. From requesting to managing and sharing KLIC notifications: everything is designed to make the work simpler and more efficient, for both office staff and field workers. Curious what that looks like in practice? Come see it for yourself at stand C49 at InfraNXT! “From main contractors to on-site crews of ground workers: the entire chain can use Mister KLIC without needing any other programs” - Nik van Giessen of CIAG/APK Group Mister KLIC is developed by Geogap, the Utrecht-based software company specialised in web solutions with a geographic component. That expertise also led to the creation of KadastraleKaart.com. Geogap’s mission is clear: simplify and automate processes with maximum return and ease of use.

Accelerating Underground Infrastructure in the Energy Transition The energy transition demands speed. More capacity on the electricity grid, new cables and pipelines, expansion of existing networks, and space for sustainable energy sources. In theory, the direction is clear. In practice, however, progress often stalls underground: in design, permitting, coordination with the surrounding community, and the cohesion between parties. From Ambition to Execution Movares works on complex infrastructure and energy challenges throughout the Netherlands. The focus here is not only on technology, but primarily on enabling execution. For acceleration means more than working harder: it requires smart choices, integrated designs, and early coordination with all involved parties. Within underground infrastructure, Movares supports clients and contractors with: • designing cable and pipeline routes, • obtaining permits, • organizing environmental management, • and creating support among stakeholders. It is precisely this combination that ensures projects actually move from the drawing board to execution. Grid Expansion as a Core Task The electricity grid is under pressure, and expansion is inevitable. At the same time, available space is limited, and complexity underground is growing. Movares is closely involved in large-scale grid expansion projects, collaborating with contractors, grid operators, and other chain partners. By taking an integrated approach to design, permits, and the environment, room for acceleration is created. Experience from large-scale projects in the Northern Netherlands shows that scaling up is possible, provided processes are well-structured and collaboration is central. Dealing with grid congestion In addition to physical grid expansion, grid congestion plays an increasingly important role. Industry, large consumers, and area developments are running into limitations regarding available capacity. Movares supports the exploration and design of solutions, such as smart grid structures and energy hubs, in which supply and demand are better aligned. These issues directly affect the subsurface and require close collaboration between technology, policy, and the environment. Here, too, acceleration is only possible when parties join forces early on. A broad view of energy infrastructure Although underground infrastructure and grid expansion are central to InfraNXT, the energy transition impacts multiple domains. Movares therefore also works on: • heat transition and heat plans for municipalities, • high-voltage infrastructure and standardization, • green gas and its integration into existing networks. This broad expertise ensures that Movares does not view matters from a single discipline, but connects various energy flows and scales. This is essential in an increasingly congested subsurface. Accelerating together InfraNXT is not a platform for isolated solutions, but a meeting place for collaboration. We believe that acceleration is only possible if parties understand and reinforce each other: clients, contractors, engineering firms, and government authorities. During InfraNXT, we are eager to discuss: • how underground infrastructure can be designed more intelligently, • where processes are currently slowing down and how this can be changed, • and how collaboration within the chain contributes to both speed and quality. Not with a standard narrative, but based on practical experience and concrete issues. Movares at InfraNXT By sharing knowledge, exchanging experiences, and forging new connections, we work together on a future-proof subsurface that enables the energy transition.
