PIANOo and StartupDelta have compiled 8 examples of innovative entrepreneurs in the publication, "Purchasing innovations, it can be done!"
One is the JLD Dike Stabilizer. They call the innovation "a future-proof dike stabilizer.
The JLD Dike Stabilizer shows a diversity of collaborations around innovative procurement and is a valuable source of inspiration for entrepreneurs and governments.
In "Purchasing innovations, it can be done!" frontrunners provide insight into how they are working with innovative companies on new solutions to social issues.
Contantijn van Oranje handed over the first copy at the How To Get There Summit last Thursday. Also present were Minister of Economic Affairs Henk Kamp and Neelie Kroes.
So it can be done: the government as client of innovative solutions. As Constantijn van Oranje, Special Envoy StartupDelta, states in the preface to the publication, "The potential for government and startups/innovative companies is huge; and with it, for the Netherlands! We should not leave that potential unused on the table."
