Invitation

Dear Colleagues,

It gives me great pleasure to invite you to the traditional conference Hydrogen Days 2014.

This event offers a unique networking opportunity for specialists or people interested in this highly  progressive field of research and rapidly growing sector of applications.  The main aim of this event is to bring together experts active in various disciplines of this research  field and thus to promote a discussion of the challenges and solutions from various viewpoints.
In my opinion, this is a very important aspect of successful research on these processes, resulting not only  in advances in understanding, but also in rapid transfer of knowledge developed to existing practical  applications and/or the development of new ones.
I wish all of us an interesting and successful meeting.

Karel Bouzek
Chairman of the Scientific Committee
