SUMMARY:5 speciale screenings van “Meer dan Babi Pangang”
DESCRIPTION:Deze documentaire is een ode aan de eerste generatie Chinese Nederlanders die met hard werken een onmisbaar onderdeel van het Nederlandse straatbeeld heeft opgebouwd. Het typische Chinees-Indische restaurant dreigt uit het Nederlandse straatbeeld te verdwijnen. Zo ook het restaurant van de vader van documentairemaker Julie Ng. In Meer dan Babi Pangang duikt ze in het succes en de teloorgang van het Chinees-Indisch restaurant. Die zoektocht leidt haar ook naar onbekende delen van haar eigen Chinese achtergrond. \nJulie Ng zal bij iedere filmvertoning aanwezig zijn om vragen vanuit het publiek te beantwoorden en in gesprek te gaan met de Chinese ouderen. Sinds de première in februari heeft deze film zeer veel aandacht gekregen in de Nederlandse media en heeft ook de Kristallen Film Award ontvangen. VNC heeft eerder een uitgebreid interview met Julie Ng over haar film gehouden (https://www.vnc-china.nl/tien-jaar-filmen-een-lange-therapiesessie/). \nDankzij onze sponsoren Algemene Chinese Vereniging in Nederland (ACVN)\, Landelijke Federatie van Chinese Organisaties Nederland (LFCON) en Dutch China Trade and Economic Promotion Association (DCTEPA) biedt VNC deze speciale screenings met Chinese ondertitels gratis aan aan leden van VNC\, Chinese ouderenorganisaties en de sponsors. Voor niet-leden vragen wij een kleine bijdrage van 5 euro. Vanwege een beperkt aantal plaatsen\, dient men zich vantevoren aan te melden via het onderstaande formulier. Na aanmelding krijgt men een bevestiging voor deelname via e-mail. Aangezien deze filmvertoning vooral bedoeld is voor Chinese ouderen of mensen die de documentaire samen met hen willen kijken\, vragen wij vrienden/kennissen hun te helpen met de aanmelding indien nodig. \nMeld je op tijd aan\, want VOL = VOL!

SUMMARY:China Café South; Robots uncovered\, what’s real\, what’s hype in Europe and China
DESCRIPTION:Join us on May 18 in Eindhoven for an engaging China Café where we take a closer look at the world of robotics—beyond the hype. Robots often appear more intelligent than they really are\, but what can they actually do today\, and where are they already making a real impact? In this accessible and thought-provoking session\, we’ll explore how robotics is developing differently in Europe and China. While Europe often emphasizes regulation\, ethics\, and precision\, China is moving at remarkable speed\, driven by large-scale investment and rapid real-world deployment—from factories to everyday services. The rapid progress of humanoid robots in China was recently highlighted by their participation in—and even winning of—a marathon\, illustrating how quickly this technology is moving from experimentation into real-world capability By comparing these approaches\, we’ll uncover not just technological differences\, but also the cultural and economic forces shaping innovation. \nDuring the session\, Jos Elfring\, assistant professor at Eindhoven University of Technology will be interviewed about his insights and experience in this field\, offering an expert perspective on the opportunities and challenges of robotics today. Furthermore\, we will interview Michiel Ebbing\, working for V2Future\, official European distributor of Unitree Robotics\, a global leader in advanced quadruped robots and humanoid robotic systems. He will share his experiences from a business and entrepreneurial point of view. Expect a lively\, balanced conversation that separates fact from fiction and invites you to see robotics from a fresh perspective. \nAfter the interview we have ample opportunity for networking over drinks and snacks\, offered by VNC free of charge. Join us!  \n \nProgramm: \n17.00 – 17.30 walkin and networking \n17.30 – 18.30 interview \n18.30 – 19.00 networking \nLanguage is English \nAbout the speakers: \n \nJos Elfring \nJos Elfring earned his PhD in Robotics in 2014 from the Department of Mechanical Engineering at Eindhoven University of Technology. Over the following decade\, he worked at TNO\, Smart Robotics\, TomTom\, and VDL in roles ranging from researcher to technical lead and architect. A consistent theme throughout his career has been the development of world models that enable autonomous robots to perceive\, understand\, and operate more effectively in complex environments. In 2024\, he transitioned to academia\, joining the Robotics section at Eindhoven University of Technology as an assistant professor. \n \nMichiel Ebbing \nMichiel was born and raised in the Netherlands\, where he studied Business (BSc) and Finance (MSc) at Erasmus University Rotterdam. Alongside his studies\, he learned Mandarin Chinese while living in Beijing\, Shanghai\, Chengdu\, and Chongqing. He started his career at the European Union Chamber of Commerce in China\, followed by a role at the Industrial and Commercial Bank of China. His entrepreneurial drive eventually led him to found his own company\, focused on bridging the gap between China and Europe. He became an official partner of Alibaba.com\, helping European businesses tap into the platform’s full potential as a global sourcing and trade hub. That same passion for connecting East and West now drives his work at V2Future\, where he serves as a key player in bringing cutting-edge technology to Europe. V2Future is the official European distributor of Unitree Robotics\, a global leader in advanced quadruped robots and humanoid robotic systems. Michiel is committed to making next-generation robotics accessible and actionable for businesses across Europe. \nLocatie\nAcademisch Genootschap AG Eindhoven\nParklaan 93\, Eindhoven\nThis China Cafe has been made possible by BOM (Brabantse Ontwikkelings Maaatschappij) \n \nPlease register here:\nTickets are transferable but non refundable.
