De Circulaire SPRONG
The aim of De Circulaire Sprong (The Circular Leap) is to unlock new economic earning potential and social impact in the region. This will lay the foundation for an industrial circular transition.

SUSTainable Artistic INnovation (Sustain)
In SUSTAIN, we develop a well-founded and manageable Brokers Knowledge Canvas that describes which tensions develop in collaborations between artists and entrepreneurs and why and how to make them work. We focus on the 'stuff' in the collaboration, and develop knowledge before and with the innovation brokers on how to realise synergy, both in the here and now and in the long term.
