At Holland High Tech we recognize that the circular economy is an increasingly important topic for the high-tech manufacturing industry. We are strongly committed to this theme, because we are convinced that the high-tech sector must make an essential contribution to achieving the objectives for a circular economy. Holland High Tech's Circular Economy Transition Team emphasizes this importance and is working specifically on implementation via roadmaps.

The energy transition is an important theme in mission-driven innovation policy. The Netherlands wants to be completely climate-neutral by 2050. Holland High Tech supports the energy transition by focusing on strategic innovation programs. We are developing a concrete action agenda for this. Based on that agenda, we work on innovations for, in, and with the high-tech manufacturing industry that contribute to the energy transition worldwide.

Digitalisation including Smart Industry means rapid changes. As Holland High Tech, we strive for innovations that promote smart industry using digital technologies. To continue developing globally, we must focus on digitalization and smart industry, also to enable the circular economy and the energy transition.

Key Enabling technologies form the basis for innovation, competitiveness and economic growth, not only within the hightech sector, but also in other important sectors for the Netherlands. Holland High Tech programs strategic developments in key technologies that contribute to urgent transitions, the National Growth Fund and European programs.
