Dear Sir or Madam,

The pivotal role of hydrogen in driving a successful energy transition is unequivocally highlighted through various global initiatives, showcasing its significance beyond Germany's national hydrogen strategy formulated by the Federal Ministry of Economics and Climate Protection (BMWK). In addition, industry-leading consulting firms like Roland Berger project a substantial global value addition of EUR 500 billion by 2030, further underscoring the immense potential of hydrogen as a transformative energy source.

We hereby invite you to digitally participate in the IIF - 1st Hydrogen Day on June 15, 2023 starting at 13:25 (CET).

"The topic of hydrogen has long since reached all branches of industry and is being hotly debated at all levels," says Mario Hose, Managing Director of Apaton Finance GmbH and organizer of the 1st Hydrogen Day. "However, the industry is still very fragmented and characterized by regional differences. Therefore, an international exchange between companies and investors is particularly useful when it comes to hydrogen," explains Hose.

"As hydrogen technology has become a beacon of hope in the energy transition for various industries, there are numerous promising approaches and ideas. With our 1st Hydrogen Day, we want to offer interested investors, but also representatives of the press, access to promising companies and, last but not least, promote the exchange within the industry," says Manuel Hölzle, CEO of the research company GBC AG, and organizer of the 1st Hydrogen Day.

The IIF will again be moderated by our GBC AG analyst Matthias Greiffenberger.

The following companies will be presenting in 30-minute slots:
