Alkmaar aims to establish a cluster of creative/cultural entrepreneurs by developing creative hotspots. Overstad has been transformed into a new and dynamic component of the heart of the city of Alkmaar. This opens up numerous opportunities in this breeding ground for creativity. In addition to Overstad, other creative hotspots are being established in Alkmaar, where established companies, SMEs, new companies and starters can get together to generate economic synergy. Alkmaar is also pooling its strengths in the field of knowledge in the broadest sense of the term. This initiative – 'Knowledge City Alkmaar' – brings together innovation in the areas of medical care, sports, water, energy and culture.
Overstad: get involved!
Overstad is in the centre of Alkmaar. This part of the city was originally an industrial area. It has now been transformed into an area bordered by large-scale retail outlets. The former industrial area has been remodelled into a dynamic area where creative economy, culture, residential functions, shops and education rub shoulders. Work is continuing on the ongoing design of the creative economy of Overstad. Have you got ideas about your future and how they fit in with, for example, Overstad and the innovation factory? Go to Club Caas and get involved!
