Living in the Netherlands means cohesion, and in Dutch we have a word that encapsulates this perfectly: Gezellig. Gezellig is an essential Dutch concept that simultaneously embraces togetherness, welcoming and coziness. For locals and expats alike, the Dutch way of living means that social and work environments function in a complementary unison that is welcoming and safe - so that everyone can be proud to call the Netherlands their home. https://lnkd.in/dnzBDebH

In a world-first, the commercial seaweed farm, North Sea Farm 1, will open within the Hollandse Kust Zuid wind farm off the Dutch coast this fall. Created by North Sea Farmers with funding from Amazon, this innovative project will test and improve seaweed cultivation among offshore wind turbines, while also researching carbon sequestration. Seaweed has great potential to help tackle climate change by absorbing CO2 as it grows, and could also enhance biodiversity. https://lnkd.in/giZJ3DB4 Learn more about why the Netherlands is a magnet for companies to pioneer sustainability efforts: https://lnkd.in/g5yvxmZi #InvestInHolland
