About Metropoolregio Utrecht

The Metropolitan Region of Utrecht is the national hub for healthy solutions for living, working, and travelling throughout the Netherlands.

 

Together we are the Utrecht Metropolitan Area: two network organizations of municipalities (U10 and Amersfoort Region) and the province of Utrecht that work on joint spatial-economic challenges.

We believe that bringing together various disciplines and people in a targeted manner helps build a healthy and resilient society. We do this through intensive collaboration with other organizations involved, such as the Economic Board Utrecht (a network of businesses, knowledge institutions and governments throughout the Utrecht Metropolitan Region) and bordering regions such as Foodvalley and Gooi- en Vechtstreek.

Together with national and international companies, governments, and knowledge institutes, we are the hub of solutions.
