Ecosystems

Impact Hub the Netherlands is aligned with the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) of the United Nations. The topics we particularly focus on – and their associated SDGs – are food, circularity, fashion and inclusion. Discover our topic-based ecosystems below.

Circular | The global economy is only 9 percent circular. Impact Hub the Netherlands works with partners including the ING Foundation, the Province of North Holland and CIRCL to accelerate and facilitate a wide range of innovations and solutions on circularity.

Food | The agro-food sector is one of the largest economic sectors in the Netherlands. Also, the Netherlands is the second largest exporter of agro-food products worldwide. This means the choices we make here have global consequences. What if we used this position to make a real impact across the food chain and accelerate the transition to a more sustainable food system?

Inclusion | This ecosystem is focused on empowering and promoting the social, economic and political inclusion of all, irrespective of age, sex, disability, race, ethnicity, origin, religion or economic or other status.

Fashion | Through our ecosystem approach we create the resources that are needed to foster positive change in the fashion sector. Projects include FABB, Province of North-Holland Circulair Textile tour and the Tommy Hilfiger Fashion Frontier Challenge.
