A delegation from ORIO has visited PWN Technologies. ORIO – the Dutch acronym for Facility for Infrastructure Development – is a financing fund that was set up by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs to stimulate the development of public infrastructure (such as water mains, roads, telephone networks and so on) in developing countries. There is an annual available budget of 180 million Euros. Only the central governments of developing countries may apply to the fund. For each project, total project costs can amount to between two and sixty million Euros.

PWN Technologies and the ORIO team also discussed problems relating to financing and guarantees, which we experience as the commercial subsidiary of a public service corporation. While the visitors had no solution at hand, they said they would be willing to think along with us creatively and look for potential solutions. The visit led to greater knowledge about our Perfectors.
