European Week of Regions and Cities

Strong Northern Netherlands (Sterk Noord Nederland) represents the collective ambition of the three Northern Dutch provinces and five municipalities to drive innovation, sustainability, and growth in alignment with Europe's strategic goals. As a region deeply committed to green energy, smart mobility, digitalization, and the circular economy, we are uniquely positioned to help solve the challenges Europe faces today. With our proven track record and collaborative spirit, we believe that a strong Northern Netherlands leads to a stronger Europe. By working together, we can ensure that Europe remains competitive, sustainable, and resilient in the years to come.

Mobility: Paving the way for Europe's green and smart transport

The Northern Netherlands is at the forefront of Europe's transition to sustainable mobility. As a region deeply invested in green transport innovations, we offer scalable solutions in smart mobility, cross-border rail, and alternative fuels like hydrogen. By advancing projects that enhance connectivity across regions, we help Europe create a more accessible, sustainable, and resilient transport network. Policymakers can rely on our experience to drive Europe’s mobility transformation.
