How Vision AI takes critical infrastructure security to the next level
On 5 June 2025Â team VAIBS will participate in Alpe d’HuZes 2025. On that day, we, Henk-Jan, Jos and Niek, will climb the Alpe d’Huez as many times as possible. The goal? To raise as much money as possible for cancer research.
Every donation is a great step towards fighting cancer. New donors have joined us again and we would like to introduce them to you. Joining us this week are Gold-IP, Solid Systems Group and VideoGuard.

‘Engagement is paramount’
‘This action by VAIBS is an initiative that touches many people emotionally. One in three people will be affected by cancer and we find that terrible. It is a disease that affects many lives and that is why we like to contribute to the fight against it.

Team VAIBS, good luck and good luck with this challenge on the Alpe d’Huez!’
