New economy
In Rotterdam, residents, businesses, and students are shaping the new economy through their initiatives and sustainable solutions. A floating farm and educational centre in one (Floating Farm), a former swimming pool turned into a breeding place for the ‘blue economy’ (Blue City), or a floating park made of building blocks of recycled plastic soup from the river Maas (Recycled Park): these are all innovative projects in Rotterdam, the city of makers, and inspiring examples to the rest of the world.
