What’s happening? How does it happen?<br />

Cleantech, short for ‘clean technologies’, searches<br />

for ways to make use of technologies to better use<br />

our natural resources and minimalise the impact on<br />

the environment. All this combined with economical<br />

added value and environmental gains. The main<br />

aim is renewable materials and energy resources together<br />

with stimulating the switch from a linear to a<br />

circular economy.<br />

Why is this a interesting circular initiative<br />

for circular harbours?<br />

Cleantech Cluster Region Ghent wants to connect<br />

economical, social and ecological considerations<br />

with clean technologies and therefore stimulate the<br />

switch from lineair to circular economies.
