The maritime strategy

The Dutch maritime cluster operates on every continent and is beyond doubt a world player. The maritime cluster consists of 12 sectors that are vital to the Netherlands, and are respected world-wide. These sectors are: ports, offshore, maritime suppliers, shipbuilding, ship operating, dredging, maritime services, maritime knowledge and education institutes, inland shipping, Royal Netherlands Navy, water sport industry and fisheries. The maritime cluster is of significant value to the Dutch economy and offers vast potential for developing new products for new markets and creating work opportunities. However, the prime position of the Dutch maritime cluster cannot be taken for granted. A shift in emphasis is occurring through the world. These changes call for flexibility and adaptability. This is why it’s so important for the Netherlands not only to retain – but to reinforce – the position of this cluster. The maritime strategy aims to secure an international sustainable leading maritime position for the Netherlands. Realizing this ambition requires strong collaboration between the government and parties in the maritime cluster. To achieve this, integral cooperation between the national government and the maritime cluster on a basis of a shared maritime strategy is essential. The policy agenda of the maritime strategy states the necessary measures for the realisation of the ambitions of the government-wide policy per policy area.
