DigiC is transforming construction in Noord-Holland by connecting innovative entrepreneurs with major firms and authorities, emphasizing digital and sustainable practices to tackle space and resource constraints.
Collaborative Innovation for Sustainable Development
DigiC, initiated by ROM InWest, is a transformative program aimed at enhancing the construction sector in Noord-Holland by leveraging digitalization and sustainability. The program brings together innovative entrepreneurs and significant players in the construction industry, including governmental bodies, to promote circular and resource-efficient building practices. This collaboration is crucial for addressing the pressing environmental and spatial challenges faced by the region [1].
Driving Circular Economy Through Technology
With its focus on digital and sustainable construction solutions, DigiC serves as a platform for startups and scale-ups to implement and test their innovations in real-world scenarios. The program supports entrepreneurs in developing technologies that minimize waste, improve efficiency, and reduce environmental impact. Notable participants include Planalogic, which specializes in digital housing designs that minimize waste, and BIM Projects, known for its smart Building Information Modeling (BIM) tools that make maintenance predictable and efficient [1][2].
