Testimonials
Miguel Gfall, Project Manager Deutsche Handelskammer
The organization was amazing. It's a very good opportunity for networking. Very well selected speakers and interesting contents presented.
Yuko Ishihara, Managing Partner Photon Capital
I like the most the fact we can learn from the professionals and talk to them during the event. In most events, after speakers speak, they leave the event but in this event, speakers stay so other professionals can talk to them.
Catalina Bauzá, Strategic consultant Isemaren
It has been a successful event with a lot and diverse topics within the power and renewables industry. The atmosphere has been great between all the players of the industry. Moreover, the organizers has make a great job and a big effort giving support to all attendees as well as being so helpful.
Peter Karam, Operations Director BNZ
It's never easy to keep a full auditorium inside the room rather than in the cafeteria. You managed to the organize short and interesting enough chats to keep a high attendance!
Manuel Muiño, Technical director Entiba Energy
One of the things I loved the most about PULSE was the approach to the conferences: speakers made topics affable.
Neil Tarrant, Senior program and project manager University of Oklahoma
The conference provided a great high-level overview of a variety of issues in the renewable energy industry in Europe. I'd like to go next year.
Shaheer Hussam, CEO Aetlan
PULSE offered terrific speakers, relevant content, and an elegant format — I would highly recommend to anyone in the power & renewables space. All-round well done!
Ester Gómez, Senior PV engineer Iberdrola Renewables
PULSE brought together many people from the renewables sector, with whom we were able to share experiences and opinions. The technical workshops were an exceptional moment to learn the improvements in RatedPower software.
Carolina Nester, Head of Asset Management Sonnedix
Great organisation and very interesting topics.
Santiago Estrada, CEO QBi Solutions
I loved the content and the networking opportunities. Pulse brings a different audience compared to other similar events. Great event altogether!
