'We want to inspire more women to choose a career in high-tech'
Although they don't mind being the only women in the meeting at all, mechanical designer Donna-Lee van den Bergh (36) and electronics designer Tina Bartulovic (37) always enjoy meeting new, female techies. On one hand, because it's just fun to be with more women, but also because teams composed of both men and women perform better. (Research shows that ladies and gentlemen. Really.) 'If we want more girls to choose a career in engineering, we need to make sure they get to see more female role models. We are happy to help with that.' -

MBO intern Salaheddine
The first thing Salaheddine Gattaa (20) asked, when he started his internship at Sioux's assembly plant last August, was whether his assignment could be altered. 'I really wanted to learn more about electronics and hoped I would get the chance here, because at school you only learn a little about everything,' he explains. Sioux's team could appreciate his ambition and adapted his assignment. A few months later, the third-year Summa Technology and Engineering student surprised everyone with a self-designed circuit board. 'Not every MBO student can do this,' underlines mechanic Sebastiaan Hovens (49). -
Hans_TechLabs
Hans Odenthal, department manager at Sioux with a tenure of ‘a hundred years’ (his words, not ours), has an enduring love for technology. Hans loves technical fiddling. This passion extends beyond his work hours, as he is an enthusiastic member of a Sioux hobby group that builds software for a fully automated LEGO train set. ‘Within Sioux, we call this kind of useful hobby group Tech Labs; we see it as learning for fun. Tech Labs remind us why our profession is so much fun AND they strengthen the bond between colleagues. Sioux also reaps the benefits of this. That's why as an employer we arrange the space, pay for the supplies and treat ourselves to food for thought.’ -
The high-tech industry needs better maintenance strategies to stay competitive
In a world facing an increasing shortage of technical staff, considerable costs due to downtime and excessive waste due to ineffective maintenance, improved maintenance strategies can help Dutch high-tech stay ahead of the global competition.

In the press: 'If ASML sneezes, we all get a cold'
