Geopolitics and Geoeconomics of Hydrogen Training Course Series
This course is the second in a series focusing on the geopolitics of hydrogen from various regional perspectives. Following sessions will include detailed explorations of EU-Asia (March 2023), EU-Americas (May 2023), and will conclude with a global perspective on hydrogen geopolitics in September. Participants in the entire series will gain a comprehensive, 36-hour insight into the intricate world of hydrogen geopolitics.
Building upon about 45 fieldtrips undertaken Mikaa Blugeon-Mered across the world since 2022, this Series of online seminars will employ a mixture of advanced lectures, interactive discussions, and real-life case studies. It will provide opportunities for Q&A sessions, enabling participants to delve deep into the subject matter, blending international relations theory applied to climate policy, infrastructure development and energy policy, with actual seen-on-the-ground real-world hydrogen projects, applications and strategies, covering the whole planet —from the European Arctic all the way down to Antarctica!
Meet the trainer
Mikaa Blugeon Mered is a French researcher, policy advisor, award-winning author, public speaker, and trainer specialized in hydrogen affairs, with more than 10 years of experience in the field.
His research is located at the intersection of issues of space, place, security, regulation, trade flows, innovation policy and economic diplomacy, with a neo-institutionalist approach. Creator of the world’s first master’s level full seminar on hydrogen geopolitics back in 2019, he is now an adjunct lecturer on hydrogen markets, diplomacy, and geopolitics at Sciences Po (France), on hydrogen geopolitics, geoeconomics, decarbonization and raw materials at Mohammed VI Polytechnic University’s Public Policy School (UM6P-PPS, Morocco), and hydrogen MBA projects supervisor at HEC Paris business school (France).
He is also a member of the steering committee of the French Hydrogen Task Force, member of the faculty of the World Hydrogen Leaders network, and co-chair of the Cleantech Business Club’s Green Hydrogen working group. In 2022, he was named “Green Hydrogen Ambassador” by the International Association for Hydrogen Energy’s Green Hydrogen Division (IAHE-GH2).
