The Hague, Monday, 8 December 2025.
The INNOvitrine platform launched on 5 December 2025, aims to enhance collaboration and transparency among Dutch government entities by sharing innovative solutions, thereby strengthening the innovation climate.
Introduction to INNOvitrine
On 5 December 2025, the Rijksinnovatiecommunity launched INNOvitrine, a platform designed to facilitate the exchange of innovative solutions among government entities in the Netherlands. This initiative aims to break down silos within the public sector, fostering a collaborative environment where municipalities, provinces, and water authorities can learn from each other’s successes and challenges [1][3].
Objectives and Initial Offerings
The primary goal of INNOvitrine is to improve the Dutch government’s innovation climate by promoting transparency and sharing best practices. The platform initially features six practice examples that include complex system innovations and initiatives transcending organizational boundaries. By providing these examples, INNOvitrine seeks to reduce redundant efforts and enable the rapid scaling of promising innovations [1].
Encouraging Participation and Collaboration
The INNOvitrine platform is a collective project that thrives on participant contributions. Government employees are encouraged to share their innovations and collaborate with others to deepen their expertise and find partners for new initiatives. Participants can join the platform by submitting an intake form, and information is readily available for those interested in participating [1].
Broader Context and Future Impact
The launch of INNOvitrine is part of a larger strategy to address technical, economic, social, and regulatory challenges in the Netherlands. By creating an open learning environment, the platform aims to connect various stakeholders, including researchers, startups, and entrepreneurs, to tackle climate-related issues and enhance the country’s knowledge and skills landscape [3].
