Entrepreneurial Dinkelland looks further than its region and maintains partnerships with a variety of partners in the German province Nedersaksen. By doing so, it is an ideal location for entrepreneurs that want to operate on a European level.
Work and entrepreneurship are important in Dinkelland. A hands-on mentality fosters a strong drive for entrepreneurship. The entrepreneurial associations of the different centres are united in an umbrella platform to make sure their voice is heard. In turn, the municipality established an entrepreneurial service team, which entrepreneurs can turn to with their questions, ideas and plans. They work together enthusiastically to strengthen the business climate significantly.
The Municipality of Dinkelland has stated in a sustainability agenda that its goal is to generate twenty per cent of its energy with sustainable resources by 2023. By 2030, that must be at thirty per cent. Special attention is paid to making the agricultural sector more sustainable, which has by tradition a strong presence here. Changing market conditions and regulations combined with the urgency to invest in animal welfare and environmental measures pressure the sector and space. In Dinkelland, people are therefore searching for comprehensive, sustainable solutions. In the pursuit of more circular agriculture, initiatives have been set up in fertiliser processing and soil use. To succeed, it is vital to find a balance between the different interests of the agricultural sector, nature conservation and the increasing tourist industry.
