Projects
Collective Value Chain of Local Linen
Over the past year and a half, we have been working with 5 partners in agriculture, manufacturing and retail on the 'Collective Value Chain of Local Linen' project. The aim is to build capacity for flax cultivation and linen production in the Netherlands, with each stage in the chain adding value.
Collective innovation for the biobased transition
Uit voorgaand onderzoek ‘Van Award naar Impact’ bleek dat de gewenste transitie naar een duurzame maatschappij niet louter aan de markt of marktdenken overgelaten kan worden. Het doel van dit project is om te onderzoeken of wij samen met de praktijkpartners een prototype van collectieve innovatie kunnen ontwerpen dat wel werkt om onder andere de biobased transitie te versnellen.
Just Transition Fund (JTF) project C-Recycle
This project focuses on the transition from the linear to a circular chemical industry in western North Brabant. The project partners are working to develop advanced chemical recycling techniques, combined with comprehensive education and training programmes, to achieve a sustainable future.
