WORK TOGETHER FOR GROSS TWENTE HAPPINESS
Leading Green Technological Top Region
The global economy, including Twente’s, is changing. Geopolitical and demographic shifts, urbanisation, technological advancements, and climate change are all rapidly approaching. As a result, we are faced with significant transition challenges that require collaborative solutions. In Twente, we have proven that through strong cooperation between government, education, and entrepreneurs, we can implement solutions and respond proactively to these changes.
Twente has evolved, and will continue to develop, as a leading green technological top region. We are working with technology as the driving force to shape an inclusive economic agenda that brings together talent, innovation, businesses, and capital in Twente. Technology contributes to making the region more sustainable and fosters the development of solutions to global societal challenges.
Twente Board aims to work with partners throughout Twente to increase Gross Twente Happiness, a measure of a pleasant environment to live, work, learn, and thrive. We are achieving this by investing in an economy centred around broad prosperity, as Twente focuses not only on financial growth but also on enhancing well-being.
