Dwars was initiated in 2010, when we brought together fifteen Limburg entrepreneurs and socially engaged Limburgers at the Chamber of Commerce to collaborate on the future of the province and to articulate new ideas and untapped potential. The project was built on the belief that progress requires independent, contrarian thinkers willing to challenge conventional paths. An unpredictable future, after all, calls for the ideas of people who themselves are not predictable. The result is a beautifully crafted book filled with fresh perspectives on new services, alternative ways of working, and innovative, sustainable projects.
