No problem.
It's happening.
We help organizations in the Northern Netherlands tackle their most pressing innovation challenges. Our mission: turning complex issues into real, implementable solutions.
No challenge is too tough.
At ChallengeBase, we drive action on complex problems by connecting organizations facing urgent issues with innovative start- and scale-ups delivering breakthrough solutions.
Turning complex challenges into real-world solutions
Our focus is always on implementation—whether through procurement or long-term partnerships. Even public procurement processes are part of our expertise, so nothing stands in the way of progress.
Storytelling that creates impact
A challenge is more than just a project—it’s a story worth telling. We work closely with your communications team to showcase both the challenge and the innovation journey, ensuring it strengthens your brand and inspires your stakeholders.
Guidance from start to finish
We stay actively involved during the development phase, connecting you with experts, test facilities, funding opportunities, and knowledge partners to turn concepts into market-ready solutions.
No organization costs, full focus on innovation
We cover the costs of organizing the challenge. That means your entire budget can be invested directly in developing and implementing the solution.
Innovation Challenge – From culling to circular supply chains
Are you active in circular supply chains, food processing, or biobased applications? Do you have the knowledge and technology to contribute to a smart, profitable, and socially supported solution for managing the goose population in Fryslân? Would you like to co-create a meaningful solution with the Province — and earn a place in a unique real-world innovation trajectory?
“The challenge significantly boosted our visibility in the region and opened the door to an exciting collaboration with global player Teijin. The experience alone was worth it—but the opportunities it unlocked are truly game-changing.”
We embrace every challenge
Start innovating
We scout and deliver practical, high-impact innovations for even the toughest challenges. That’s what drives us every day.
Commit to the outcome
Why leave a good idea on the shelf? We stay involved until solutions are fully put into practice — because impact only happens when ideas become reality.
Build the North
When organizations in Northern Netherlands face challenges that keep them awake at night, we look globally for the right solution—and bring it home to strengthen our region.
