Rotterdam Makers District<\/strong><\/h2>\n

RDM Rotterdam and M4H Rotterdam (Merwe-Vierhavens) together form the Rotterdam Makers District: a unique innovation district located in the heart of the port and just minutes from the city centre. It is the place where businesses, educational institutions and knowledge organisations work together to build a clean and future-proof port city.
Here, companies connect, education and industry have the space to experiment, and start-ups grow into established businesses. The Port of Rotterdam Authority, the Municipality of Rotterdam, Rotterdam University of Applied Sciences and Techniek College Rotterdam are jointly transforming two former port areas into one innovation district with its own ecosystem, based on a long-term partnership agreement.<\/a>
