Campus Groningen is the innovation engine of the Northern Netherlands. It is a place where students, researchers, entrepreneurs, and professionals come together every day to do business, learn, work, conduct research, and innovate. Here, ideas grow into solutions for the challenges of today and tomorrow.
Together with the Healthy Ageing Campus and the Zernike Campus, Campus Groningen forms a single ecosystem. An environment in which science, technology, healthcare and entrepreneurship reinforce each other. Its strength lies in the connections: between disciplines, between organisations and between research and application.
Collaboration is key. Public and private partners work together here on social issues relating to digitisation, health, life sciences, energy and sustainability, driven by a shared ambition. By combining knowledge and looking beyond boundaries, innovations are created that extend beyond a single sector.
Campus Groningen is therefore more than just a physical location. It is a dynamic network in which knowledge is shared, talent is developed and innovations find their way into practice more quickly. New ideas are not only conceived here, but also tested, validated and applied.
The proximity of technological and medical expertise makes the campus unique. It is precisely this cross-pollination that leads to new applications that directly contribute to people's lives and to a future-proof society.
With access to leading research, talent and facilities, Campus Groningen offers a strong business climate for companies and organisations that want to grow and innovate. The open and entrepreneurial culture makes collaboration a natural choice. Together with partners, we are building a campus of national importance. This is where knowledge comes to life and where impact is made.
Campus Groningen has been among the frontrunners in the Dutch campus landscape for years. Previously, the campus was named the fastest-growing campus in the Netherlands by Buck Consultants International (BCI) and quickly grew into one of the largest campuses of national importance. This strong position forms an important foundation for collaboration within the National Campuses and Science Parks Organization (Stichting NCO).
As part of the National Campuses Organization, Campus Groningen joins forces with other leading campuses and science parks in the Netherlands. By collaborating on themes such as innovation, talent development, entrepreneurship, and international visibility, the campuses not only strengthen their own ecosystems but also enhance the Netherlands’ competitiveness as a hub for innovation.
