Partners and International Advisory Board
The project, which started in September 2015 and runs until August 2019, has brought together 24 partners and nine associated partners selected on the basis of their specialism and ability to contribute to the various tasks and deliverables. Excellent teamwork is required to manage the project. A multidisciplinary Management Team has been put in place to run the HYDRALAB+ project: Frans Hamer (Deltares The Netherlands and Project Coordinator), Professor Agustín Sánchez-Arcilla, (UPC Spain), Dr James
Sutherland (HR Wallingford United Kingdom), Dr Stuart McLelland (UHULL United Kingdom) and Dr Björn Elsäßer (DHI Denmark). The coordination and operational aspects of the ‘Transnational Access’ are managed by Mark Klein Breteler (Deltares). Herman Scholten (Deltares) is taking care of overall finance and administrative issues..

Networking, bridging the gap between science and practice
To target wider interactions, a set of thematic workshops for stakeholders are organized during the half yearly ‘HYDRALAB+ Workshop Events’. HYDRALAB+ is bridging the gap
between scientists, who are working on new developments, manufacturers of hi-tech measurement technics, policy makers and end-users (consultants, contractors) that can
make use of the project achievements. Special attention is paid to the hi-tech optical and acoustic measurement techniques that can be used across a range of laboratory facilities. Representatives of industry are invited to attend the experiments and to obtain a fruitful two-way interaction.
International Advisory Board
This independent Board monitors the quality of the services and implement improvements where necessary and is advising the Management Team.
