Within Transport and Logistics Netherlands (TLN), there is a working group that focuses on innovation promotion in the sector (KLS innovation committee). This working group includes companies that distinguish themselves in the field of innovation within the sector. In order to further professionalize innovation promotion, there is a need for more in-depth knowledge exchange between these progressive companies and with relevant knowledge institutions.
This innovation cluster creates a strong link between innovative entrepreneurship and knowledge development. The innovation cluster focuses on directly applicable innovative solutions through, among other things, knowledge exchange and discussion meetings, scenario planning workshops, national meetings of KLS members, lecture series, articles in trade journals, demand articulation (innovation agenda) and starting up innovative projects.
The unique thing about this innovation cluster is that participants will exchange knowledge more intensively and challenge each other when it comes to the development and application of innovative concepts.
