Meet the HatchTech Research Team

Knowledge is at the heart of all our solutions

HatchTech is – and always will be – a knowledge-driven company. Since our foundation more than 20 years ago, scientific research has formed the basis of all our products and solutions. Our in-house Research Team was established soon afterwards, with the addition of two PhD students; it now includes respected poultry scientists whose expertise gives us a platform to innovate and evolve. Working from our headquarters in Veenendaal, our researchers regularly participate in leading poultry seminars and conferences around the world. Their work is often published in leading technical and scientific journals.
