Enterprises sparring with creatives
The Sustainability
Gym
THE TRAINING SPACE FOR AN EARTH FRIENDLY ECONOMY
But what can I do?
Work with a creative and train yourself!
Find a new sustainable vision under the influence of artistic methods.
Entrepreneurs as well as artists have something in common: They are creative in their thinking and are always looking to re-describe and discover the world.
The EU Green Deal and the 17 Sustainable Development Goals not only challenge enterprises to act, but also open up a new scope of action for creatives.
The Sustainability Gym offers an unique approach in which you as company get the chance to define a new sustainable vision of your economic activities by sparring with creatives!
Artists and creatives respond to complexity, uncertainty and insecurity with reflection and passion, curiosity and freedom as well as resilient flexibility.

Three phases program
Learn more about our Sustainability Gym program and what’s in for you!
First Phase
We appeal to the sense of responsibility of entrepreneurs, industry, artists and creatives to start a conversation about sustainable change!
- of entrepreneurs and companies towards the planet to save resources and motivate society to consume sustainably!
- of artists and creatives towards society and the ability to make people feel to stimulate environmental awareness!
Let´s team up and combine our potentials!
- Be irritated
- get in contact with creative strategies
- Become agile again
- Overcome routines
Second Phase
The community space for sustainable development in industrial areas
We set up a sustainable training space!
Routines lead to passive actions, which are the biggest obstacle for sustainable change. Thus, a first approach lies in creating space to formulate new sustainable routines and train them for and in everyday working life.
Strategy
The starting point is to create a new, „neutral“ training space for sustainable development that has nothing to do with the company’s own premises.
Planning
It is a space to be build up in a central location in industrial parks. It will be a 15 qm yellow greenhouse, which we will opened as a training area for the surrounding companies.
Development
We will install the first pilot Sustainability Gym at the Noorderpoort industrial park in Venlo. Companies on location are for example Rabobank, Carglass and a motorcycle dealer.
Quick Launch
The opening, as well as the presentation of the concept, will take place in September in a three-week expo. We will start the first Utopia-Workshop on the topic of „Trade-Routes of the Future“ by then.

Third Phase
Utopia Workshops
Sustainable action has to be learned, like a team-sport. It requires motivation, training and dedication.
Our shared aim is to break down the complexity and abstraction of climate change into small(er) visions for the future that can be fitted into the daily rhythm of companies!
