NWO Matchmaking Event

To enlarge our consortia for this new research project 'The New Planning' we are organising a matchmaking event on 1st November 2018.

Vereniging Deltametropool, together with TU Delft together is developing a research project “The New Planning” focusing on the urgencies and the new approaches which are needed in Dutch spatial planning.

The scope of the project falls under NWO routes related to the planning system and we are in process to make an application for the NWO-NWA-ORC call. We have created a Consortium of academic, civil society, government and market sectors to discuss the real issue. With the financial support from NWO, we are organising the first matchmaking event for the project. We invite all the related organisations and individuals to attend the matchmaking event and we look forward to new collaborations.
