He then went on a tour of SP5, hosted by UNL’s Managing Director Huub Rakhorst. En route, he spoke to several operators. The visit was concluded by a tour of the Stable Isotopes facility where Arjan Bos, Head of SI, informed the Prince about medical isotopes in particular.

Bijleveld-Schouten, Royal Commissioner for the Province of Overijssel, Mrs J. Hermans-Vloedbeld, Mayor of Almelo, and Mr J. Stremmler, Ministry of Economic Affairs, Agriculture & Innovation.
