STIPP
STIPP is a project under the Interreg Meuse-Rhine programme. The full name is: SME Transition Innovation Partners Projects. The project promotes cross-border collaboration between SMEs and scale-ups in the Meuse-Rhine region of the Netherlands, Belgium and Germany. The focus is on product and process innovations that contribute to societal transitions: industrialisation, the circular economy and a healthy society.
