Project Description

The creative industry strengthens the innovation capacity of the Netherlands. With its innovation and imaginative power, the sector is an indispensable link in generating answers to major societal issues and in offering a meaningful interpretation to new technological possibilities.

CLICKNL , part of the policy of the Dutch ministry of Economic Affairs and Climate Policy, stands for connecting research and the creative industry. By increasing the knowledge base of the creative professional, we strengthen the innovative capacity of not only the sector, but the Netherlands. We do so by developing a national knowledge and innovation agenda for the creative industries, but also by supporting field labs, having funding possibility for R&D, organising big and small events and keeping our community up to date on important possibilities, news and events. Want to meet us? Our biggest public event is DRIVE: the Design Research & Innovation Festival in October, during the Dutch Design Week.
