We Are TopDutch

TopDutch is a campaign carried out by NOM on behalf of the Province of Fryslân, the Province of Drenthe and the Province of Groningen. By using TopDutch as the primary economic brand for initiatives and networks, northern ambitions and the northern ecosystem are supported. In doing so, TopDutch supports the NOM Sector Teams, for example, to search for valuable companies and investors who are perfect complements for the region. In this way, together we want to ensure that more innovative, foreign companies that are at the forefront of the transition find our region.

To show the international market what we are good at, we do this from one label and one region: the TopDutch region! And to invite them to join us, so that we can become even better at it and make a difference worldwide with sustainable solutions to global challenges. Not to pat ourselves on the back, but because time is really running out.

Naturally leading the transition

We are at a tipping point. And if history has taught us anything, it's that you shouldn't leave the world's big problems to global politics. But tackling problems only on a local scale, with everyone having to reinvent the wheel individually, is not the solution either. The Northern Netherlands is leading important system transitions in industries such as green energy and green chemistry, digital innovation and water-tech, healthy aging and the future of food. But things can always be done better and they must be done faster.

This requires even more talented people, as well as international investors and companies. This is not about numbers and size, but value. They must be an addition. Or just a missing link. This is why TopDutch is more than just a brand. We also help existing initiatives and local networks to move forward, so that we know exactly what we need as a region. This enables us to set up targeted international campaigns to convince the right people. We can then bring them into contact with the right networks and initiatives.

 

Campaign - Put your Company on the Map

Who better to tell you that doing business in the TopDutch region is good, than the already established entrepreneur himself? After all, as a potential newcomer, you would like to know who your possible new 'neighbors' are. This is why the TopDutch puts your company on the map campaign was launched. Aimed at innovative companies that are already doing their bit for the transitions. Naturally.
