More and more cities (port cities) are refocusing on the\u00a0manufacturing economy<\/strong>, encouraged by the transition to a\u00a0circular economy<\/strong>, the emergence of smart technology, and the need for socially inclusive cities. To Rotterdam, a\u00a0port city<\/strong>\u00a0with a rich industrial history, this is a development that offers welcome opportunities.<\/p>\n

As part of the 7th edition of the\u00a0International Architecture Biennale Rotterdam, IABR\u20132016\u2013THE NEXT ECONOMY<\/a>, the city of Rotterdam and the IABR have established the\u00a0Atelier Rotterdam: The Productive City<\/a>.<\/p>\n

The Atelier has conducted research by design to identify the opportunities for the future of the Metropolitan Region Rotterdam The Hague from the perspective of the next\u00a0manufacturing economy<\/strong>. What value can the manufacturing economy add to the city and the region? Is it possible to improve its links with existing large-scale industry? And will this allow Rotterdam to profit more from the huge\u00a0material flows<\/strong>\u00a0that will continue to traverse the port and the city in the future?<\/p>\n

The Atelier also presented 7\u00a0spatial development perspectives<\/strong>\u00a0on the scale of the metropolitan region. They do not constitute an all-encompassing strategy, but a range of strategic and prototypical interventions that strengthen the regional manufacturing economy and thus contribute to an economically strong and\u00a0socially inclusive<\/strong>\u00a0urban region.<\/p>\n
