Construction firm Van Wijnen was from day one a very close partner who gave us loads of ideas and tips. Even a BIM modeller was involved by the modelling of the building site. In addition to that, Van Wijnen supplies us with materials to structure
the site. In addition, we also want to thank a few other partners of Van Wijnen: Allfence, Boels and Voskamp. They all contribute to the event.
